Indrafjellet from Liaskjæret
- Date:
- 09.04.2016
- Characteristic:
- Hillwalk
- Duration:
- 3:30h
- Distance:
- 8.2km
We drove from Bergen to Sotra, turning left before entering the tunnel and driving south to Liaskjæret on the eastside of the island. We parked near Liaskjervegen 182, i.e., very close to the point at the street, where the bus turns around. We followed the street southwards, basically to its end---very near to a small harbor for private boats. We went around the last houses and came soon to a small bay (called Nordra Skagavika). From there, we followed a very simple path that leads up to a small lake (Røssevikvatnet). We continued on the western side of this small lake, approaching Hansafjellet. It's straight-forward to hike there, even though we could not see any paths (occasionally, it's wet, yes). It was good to change over to Hansafjellet on its northern end---ascending to this >>>
Liatårnet and Høgafjellet
- Date:
- 15.11.2015
- Characteristic:
- Hillwalk
- Duration:
- 2:45h
- Distance:
- 8.2km
We parked south of Fjell, where a road departs, leading to Fjell Festning. We followed this road for a bit, before we continued towards Liatårnet (to the right). Someone has put significant efforts into putting signs up and marking the path, so it's really straight forward now to find the path up Liatårnet. :-) From Liatårnet, we enjoyed nice views in all directions, before we continued southwards towards Høgafjellet. After the first descent, we probably followed an older path, before we connected back to the blue-marked path towards Høgafjellet. The path from Liatårnet to Haganes, via Høgafjellet, is really very nice with great views and rough, wild romantic impressions. Before walking out towards the road near Haganes, we descended to a half-high level. We were wondering, whether >>>
Sangoltshornet
- Date:
- 15.02.2015
- Characteristic:
- Hillwalk
- Duration:
- 1:30h
- Distance:
- 4.1km
We started right next to Sangoltvatnet and quickly found a path that led us up to Sangoltshornet. This really is no difficult, nor demanding hike. Still, one can enjoy nice views, for example, over Raunefjorden. From Sangoltshornet, we then continued -- without path, mostly -- in a south-easterly direction, passing over three, four additional, minor heights. Eventually, we decended -- also without any path (not 100% recommended) in direction NE (basically towards Sangoltvatnet). Once back down, however, we completed a slightly larger round, including a place near the coast with name Sangolthella / Helleskaget. All in all, the hike was refreshing in nice winter weather! :-) Petter Bjørstad has a useful page about Sangoltshornet . Web page UT.no from the Norwegian Trekking Association recommends another hike up and down Sangoltshornet (also via Mannen).
