Five summits north of Brekkedalen
For the second weekend in a row, Endre picked me up at my place in Lønborg shortly after 07:00 for a drive to Voss. This time we however continued northeast to Stalheim and Brekkedalen. Along the way we saw lots of traces of Amy - the storm that had passed over Hordaland the night before, and even had to avoid a wire stretched halfway across the road in order to get to Stalheim Hotel, but thankfully the trees that had blocked the road had already been removed.
After paying the 50 kr toll at the start of Brekkedalsvegen we drove up to Tverraldskaret. Here we parked the car next to the road and then followed the gravel road back down to Kinnarbakken and onwards to Vikset.
From Vikset we followed an unmarked, and at times quite weak (we lost it a couple of times), trail up to Viksetskaret. Here we turned west and headed off-trail to the summit of Solheimsfjellet, which provided excellent views. After a short break we returned the same way and then began our ascent of Viksetnipa. This was straightforward and the summit was reached without any difficulties.
On our way east to Uraskarfjellet we came across a large herd of reindeer south of Ytredalsvatnet, which we of course tried to disturb as little as possible. The route from Viksetnipa to Uraskarfjellet required easy route-finding but did not present any real challenges. From the summit cairn at Uraskarfjellet we followed the ridge northeast before descending into the aptly named Uraskaret for a minor detour to Vest for Fyresnipa.
Vest for Fyresnipa also offered an excellent overview of the possible ascent routes to Fyresnipa and we decided to try two different routes. Endre went for a steep option from the southwest while I made my ascent via the ridge from the north. Both options were successful and I can at least attest that my route was straightforward. I only had to use my hands a couple of times for extra support and there were no exposed sections.
When I got to the summit of Fyresnipa, Endre had already been there and was on his way to Vetlafjellet, which I had already visited a month earlier. I could therefore take it relatively easy during the remainder of my hike but still made it back to the car around half an hour before Endre.
In conclusion, this roundtrip can be very highly recommended. It provides excellent views along the way and even though it is largely off-trail, the open terrain makes for easy navigation. Takk for turen, Endre!
