Arna to Lønborg

Distanse:
20,1km

I started by taking the bus to Arna and getting off at the bus stop called Hammaren. From there I shortly followed a paved road before switching to an old tractor road heading north and then southwest to circumvent a house. It turned out that this short detour was not necessary though as there was also a shortcut just to the south of the house. The tractor road quickly turned into a nice unmarked trail that I could easily follow all the way to Fabiansvarden . Which, despite its name, did not include any cairn that I could find. The views were also rather limited and I therefore did not stay long before making a large U-turn on my way south towards Merkeshaugen , soon even on a marked trail. No markers on the summit itself, but there was a small single-rock cairn south of the summit, which is maybe where the name comes >>>

Unknown ruins above Munkebotsvatnet

9,5km

After LarsKr (Lars Kristian Inderhaug) made me aware of some unknown ruins east of Munkebotsvatnet, I of course had to take a closer look. The first ruin, referred to as Ruin SØ for Fjellstova , was found less than 100 meters southeast from the ruins of Fjellstova and was easily reached by following a weak trail/deer track from Fjellstova, which itself is only a short detour from the main trail to Sandvikshytten . This one I had also passed by on an earlier hike more than a year ago , but I cannot remember whether I noticed the ruins during that hike. I continued southeast along a weak trail/deer track in the direction of the second ruin, referred to as Ruin vest for Brennhaugen . This one I had not visited before, and probably would not have come across if it was not for the directions provided by Lars Kristian, even though these were the most visible ruins, albeit in an area that is clearly off the beaten track. From this location I >>>

Storhøyen, Tveitaneset and Kvamsvågen

On our way home from the hike to Orrnipa , I made a quick stop at Storhøyen which could be easily reached via first a tractor road up from Skarsvegen and then a short off-trail ascent to the summit. The summit provided nice views across the fjord to the southwest and even included the remains of an old trig marker. I continued a bit further along the trail/tractor road towards Tveitaneset but this did not result in a major difference with regards to the views. After this minor detour, I followed a trail down to what was left of an old house down by the sea, before finally following the same trail to Kvamsvågen, from where a gravel road could be followed back to the main road.

Orrnipa from Sæbø

A short hike were we more or less followed in the footsteps of Kjell . We parked by the church at Sæbø and from there followed an unmarked gravel road southeast. When the road ended there was a trailhead marked by a blue arrow and a trail that could easily be followed all the way to the summit. (Note that about halfway to the summit there was also a marked trail coming up from Vetås/Vettås, hence it should also be possible to ascend Orrnipa from that direction as well.) The summit provided excellent views in all directions, even more so for only being 170 meters above sea level. From the summit we followed a weak trail marked with blue paint, but unlike Kjell we continued on this trail as it entered into the dense forest. Upon exiting the forest we however soon arrived at a fence with no further trail markers to be found. We tried >>>
