Sveningen from Hausdalen

Dato:
12.06.2016
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
6:30t
Distanse:
13,5km

This time, we had two cars, so we parked one at the very end of Hausdalen (where Brekkedalen starts). We then took the other car to get to our starting point, a little further out Hausdalen (near Samdalsvatnet, Tømmervika, Straumsrinden, Hausdalsvegen 425---about 3.4 km away from the parking at the very end of Hausdalen). This start point for the hike is not 100% obvious and one needs to know, where to leave the street in Hausdalen. One then drives just a few meters up a gravel road, before there is space for two or three cars on the left side. From there, we followed the forrest road, first over Straumsrinden (passing by Samdalsvatnet). On its southern / southwestern end, one uses two bridges to get over the stream that continues further out Hausdalen. Only shortly after, one crosses >>>

Lyderhorn from Kjøkkelvik

Dato:
11.06.2016
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
1:30t
Distanse:
3,5km

We started from nearby Kjøkkelvik school, ascending via Lyderhornslien into Olderdalen. The path follows a nice ridge up (first into southeastern direction, towards Små-Lyderhorn), before turning (steeply) left, right after reaching the saddle point. From there, it's then directly up to Lyderhorn (in northern direction). From the top of Lyderhorn, we continued northwards (and down). We first thought to step down a path to the upper end of Lyderhornslien, which is somehow parallel to the one we took up (a little further north). After having passed by the entry point to this path (which always is a little tricky to find!), we continued and decided to take the next path down (forking off to the left, west, right before getting to Høgenuten). This path leads to the upper end of Nedbergelien. >>>

Sydpolen from Brekkedalen and more

Dato:
04.06.2016
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
5:30t
Distanse:
14,7km

We parked at the end of the road in Hausdalen, near the bridge to Brekkedalen. We then followed the gravel road into Brekkedalen, first, before leaving this road (to the left) and ascending to Sydpolen via the steep ridge that comes down into Brekkedalen. We have hiked this route several times before and always this part (up to Sydpolen from Brekkedalen) is a special (and nice!) hiking challenge. This time, my challenge doubled as the sole of one of my hiking shoes detached just after 100m up, or so. With a short cord that I took of my backbag, I managed to bind the loose sole back to my shoe (somehow), but hiking was definitely different, afterwards! :-) With this short delay, we ended up at Sydpolen a few minutes later than expected---still, we enjoyed this part of the hike very much, >>>

Knappen and Løvstakken

Dato:
02.06.2016
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
3:08t
Distanse:
17,4km

I started from Varden and went up Knappen, first. From there, I connected to Bønes, and from up there, further to Gullstølen and Gullsteinen. I then decided to also continue to Løvstakken, before descending back to Fyllingsdalen. Selected photos are available as Google+ photo album . Web page WestCoastPeaks.com provides useful information about Løvstakken and also Petter Bjørstad has a useful page about Knappen . Web page UT.no from the Norwegian Trekking Association recommends this hike (part of it), too. On Bergentopp 200 there is a page (in Norwegian) about Løvstakken .

Kanadaskogen with Knappen, Svartaberget, etc.

Dato:
28.05.2016
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
3:00t
Distanse:
12,6km

Starting at Varden in Fyllingsdalen, I first got over and up to Knappen (around Knappatjørna). From Knappen, I continued to Eldtona and further over the top and down again to Bjørgelien. Following that street downwards, I got to Bjøgeveien in order to cross over Kjerreidvika to Bjørndalsskogen (right behind the supermarked along Kjerreidvika there is a steep path that leads up to Bjørndalsskogen). I then crossed the living area at Bjørndalsskogen, before ascending to Straumsfjellet, right north of Bjørndalsskogen. From Straumsfjellet, I found a path down to Bjørndalsbrotet, where I crossed underneath Bjørgeveien over to Kanadaskogen. I continued towards Bjørndalsvatnet, first, getting into the green area as soon as possible. Without really entering the path that rounds about >>>

Kristinuten

Dato:
16.05.2016
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
4:00t
Distanse:
8,3km

We started from the road between Ulvik and Osa, driving basically to the top of the saddle (between Ulvikafjorden and Osafjorden). There, we continued a little bit further on a side road the passes by Øydve. When getting close to the forrest, we parked and started hiking. The first 300 height meters are convenient on a forrest road that winds back and forth towards Liastølane. Then, one needs to pay attention. A sign ("Kleppe", I think) tells to leave the forrest road and continue along a minor path. This trail is really hard to find---the best tip is to look out for small stones that mark the path. One first ascends further through the forrest before reaching the tree line very soon. From there, it is basically straight up to the top of Kristinuten. It is recommended to >>>

Oksen

Dato:

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
5:00t
Distanse:
9,4km

We drove the beautiful road no. 7 into Hardangerfjorden. At Granvin, we connected to the road that comes down from Voss, turning right (into the direction of the new Hardanger-bridge and Ulvik, etc.). We passed the long tunnel (about 8 km), continued towards Ulvik (not up to the bridge) and turned right into a small road right after the tunnel (this place is not completely obvious and paying a little extra attention right after the tunnel helps). From there, we drove (in a way back ) all the way out to the tip of the peninsula on which Oksen is the last mountain. The end of the road (and the starting point for hiking) is Tjoflot. There, one can drive a bit up (passing the farms there) and find a parking spot right after entering the forrest. From there (at about 230 meters over the sea >>>

Ulriken via Isdalen

Dato:
14.05.2016
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
3:30t
Distanse:
10,2km

We parked right next to the big dam that holds Svartediket back and started walking along the northern side of Svartediket from there. Instead of following the main trail (up to the left) at the end of Svartediket, we continued along Tarlebøveien, crossing a small stream at the very back of the valley and turning right (in southern direction) there. Following the forrest road further, one starts to circle around Svartediket. After a short stretch, one comes to another small bridge, which crosses the stream that jumps down through Isdalen. Right there, not very well visible, though, one needs to turn left (steeply up) and find the trail that then continues through Isdalen. While the trail head (next to the bridge) is not easy to see, the path then becomes very well visible and easy to >>>

Liatårnet

Dato:
13.05.2016
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:00t
Distanse:
5,1km

We parked on the western side of Liatårnet, a few kilometers south of Fjell, where one is also informed about nearby Fjellfestningen. From there, one first follows a paved forrest road towards Liatårnet, passing by Bålesteinen, then turning right. The trail to Liatårnet leave the paved road (to the right) near a shooting arena and right next to a simple building. Then the path leads (more or less) straight up to Liatårnet (easy to find). It was a nice evening, but quite a bit windy (especially on the top)! To get back, we continued from Liatårnet southwards, descending steeply into a wet area about 100 height meters below Liatårnet. In order to get back to the paved road (further down and to the northwest from this place), one needs to look very carefully for a trail (if there >>>

Møsnuken

Dato:

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
5:00t
Distanse:
11,9km

We took road E39 southwards from Bergen, passing by Kalandsvatnet and driving all the way to Ulven (near Os), where we turned left (right next to a gas station), finding the small road connecting to Tyssdal. On the other side of Oselva, near the point, where Tyssdalselva is coming down from Møsnuken, we found a parking place and started to hike from there. Since we wished to start with Borgafjellet, this time, we first tried to connect to the gravel road that connects Tyssdal with Os (right next to Oselva, on its eastern side). We could have done this "the easy way" :-) -- instead, we walked up to the houses on the hillside south of Tyssdal. Up there, we understood that we were too high and descended the few meters down to the gravel road through the forest. Following the gravel >>>
