I left work early to take advantage of the great weather for a revisit of Førdesveten , mainly due to the recently opened dagsturhytte right next to the summit. After taking the bus from the city center, and switching buses at Skogskiftet terminal, I got off at Kleppe from where I followed a nice trail northwest. There was a sign at the trailhead but the trail itself was unmarked, except for the occasional small cairn later on, however the trail was easy to follow and I soon arrived at Kleppaksla . At Kleppaksla there was a visitor register just south of the highest point and excellent views in all directions. From Kleppaksla I continued northeast along the trail until reaching the crossroads south of Førdesveten where I decided to make a short detour to Storevarden before returning and completing the final climb to the summit.

Started by taking the train to Reimegrend and after safely crossing to the south side of the railroad tracks I followed the river east, first off-trail and then on a little used path that included a small wooden bridge. Just after the bridge I turned south towards the river along a trail which I thought would bring me to the bridge across Raundalselvi . This trail however pretty much came to an end at a small island northwest of the bridge and I had to find my own way to the bridge from there. Thankfully, the water level in the river was not very high and I managed to leave the island and get to the bridge without getting wet. After crossing the bridge I followed a trail southeast to Vetlaheggstølen and Mysedalen. While walking along the river was nice, the trail was clearly not very frequently used and disappeared several times. From Vetlaheggstølen >>>

Left work early for a hike with two colleagues following the so-called Dyrdalsrunden, i.e. a hike following the ridges around Dyrdalsvatnet . Excellent views along the way but the trails were overall not of the best quality and rather muddy. On the way back to the car I made a small detour on my own to Bontveit søyle . This included a steep ascent from the east with lots of fallen trees to crawl over/under as a I got close to the trig marker and an equally steep descent south along the ridge. So while the main hike can be highly recommended, a visit of Bontveit søyle is clearly more of an acquired taste.

A return to Modalen with Petter to visit the final two peaks he had not yet visited in Nordhordland. Petter picked me up at my place at 06:30 and after around 1.5 hours of driving we parked at the small parking lot in Heimdal and were soon ready to begin our hike up Norddalen. In Norddalen there is a trail marked with red T's, however both the trail and the trail markers were often difficult to spot and we ended up losing the trail a couple of times. But given that the main direction was pretty obvious, i.e. head up the valley, this was not a big problem. The wet surfaces and the many slippery rocks however provided more of a challenge and meant that we had to proceed with care. Note that trying to follow the markers is still very much recommended as there were several maze-like passages in between large boulders where the markers >>>
