Climbed August 27, 2016
Difficulty: YDS class 2
Information:
How to get there:
From Bergen, drive to Trengereid, then take Hwy. 7, after the long tunnel in
Samanger, go right in the traffic circle onto Hwy. 48. Drive past Eikelandsosen.
At the intersection in Holdhus, measure and go 1.1 kilometer further. Just before
the road starts downhill, turn right onto the beginning of a tractor road. There is
parking for one car here. This location is N60.22937, E005.84420, elevation about
130 meter.
Route:
Cross the road and the small field, then follow smaller trails to cur across
to the base betwwen Høghovda and Russåsen. A tractor road climbs almost
to the broad, shallow saddle between our hill and its lower north summit.
Turn more towards the summit (right) and follow easy terrain to the top.
Comments:
I started at 1340 after a hike of Stoåsen. The terrain was easier
than anticipated and I arrived at the summit at
1415. After a short break, I returned back
to my car and a nice drive back to Bergen.
