Lønahorgi from Hangurstoppen

Dato:
08.08.2021
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
6:10t
Distanse:
21,9km

A visit of Lønahorgi had been on my agenda for a while. So I decided to make the most out of my last day of summer vacation and hopped on an early morning train to Voss. Here I decided on "cheating" by taking the cable car (see Voss Gondol ) to the top of Hangur , and thus for once started a hike with descending from the first minor peak of the hike. In fact, this was so unusual that I almost missed the sign for the trail to Lønahorgi, as it does a minor detour via Valbergstjørni and eastern side of Slettafjellet . The advantage compared to the more direct route via Trodalstølen is that one pretty much stays at the same altitude. The trail was marked with red T's and easy to follow, and I quickly connected with the tractor road coming up from Trodalstølen. From here on the trail partly followed the road and partly made >>>

Storevasseggene and Blådalsnipa from Nordkvingo

Dato:
05.08.2021
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
4:40t
Distanse:
14,7km

I started by taking the bus (or rather buses, four in total) to arrive at Nordkvingo where I got off at the stop called Sønsthaugen. Here I easily located the marked trailhead for Kalvedalshytta , which I then proceeded to follow. At first the trail was relatively steep, helped by various stone steps and metal railing, but it soon levelled off and it did not take too long before it started descending towards Gjelet where it connected with the new trail coming up from Nordkvingo p-plass . The trail was marked with red T's and was overall easy to follow. After briefly passing by Blådalsvatnet, the trail shortly descended to south of Setertjørna where I got the first views of both Storevasseggene and Blådalsnipa , plus a nice overview of Nordkvingesetret , before the trail again started ascending into the valley in between Storevasseggene and Klefjellnipa . Just before the marked trail >>>

Rødsaksla

Dato:

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
1:43t
Distanse:
4,3km

Afternoon hike with the goal of visiting Rødsaksla , a minor summit on the Alle topper i Bergen list. I started by taking the bus to Rød, where I for some reason thought that I ought to get off at the bus stop referred to as "Rød nord, Bergen", while the correct one would have been "Rød sør, Bergen" which is located right next to the trailhead. But after a short 500 meters walk along the road I arrived at the unmarked trailhead discovered by knutsverre (Knut S. Andersen) and Astrid (Astrid S. Andersen) on their hike to Rødsaksla a couple of months earlier . This resulted in it being straightforward to get pretty close to the summit, even though the trail turned rather weak towards the end. (Note that as the GPS track indicates, I also made a short attempt at a more direct shortcut by following an alternative trail early on. But decided to return to the main trail when the alternative trail ended in a wet >>>

Fannaråken from Turtagrø

Dato:

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
7:49t
Distanse:
19,2km

We drove from Sogndal to Turtagrø and parked at the opposite side of the road from Turtagrø Hotell . Lots of other hikers at Turtagrø, but as soon as we started on the trail towards Helgedalen, the number of people rapidly decreased and we soon found ourselves all on our own. (In fact, we would meet less than 50 people for the entire hike.) We shortly connected with the gravel road in Helgedalen, which we then proceeded to follow until reaching the marked trail for Fannaråken below Ekrehytta. After this easy start of just over 200 vertical meters spread out over a bit less than 5 km, the real hike started with another 900 meters left to climb over less than half the distance. The trail was clearly marked and overall easy to follow, and there were only a couple of short sections early on where hikers with a severe fear of heights might struggle. We actually >>>

Short hike from Åsen p-plass to Bjella via Bjedlastølen with the main objective of looking for blueberries and cloudberries. In the end, the former was much more successful than the latter. Marked and easy to follow trails.
