Halsnøy is a beautiful island in the middle of the Nordhordland fjord, Norway. The island is home to a beautiful hiking trail that leads to Toftåsen, a mountain with spectacular views of the surrounding landscape. The trail is easy to follow and suitable for all levels of hikers, with a length of 4.7 km. The trail starts at the Halsnøy parking lot and takes you through the forest to the top of Toftåsen. On the way, you will pass the old Halsnøy farm and enjoy a beautiful view of the fjord and the surrounding mountains. At the top of the mountain, you will be rewarded with a beautiful panoramic view of the area.
The route is a good way to explore the nature of Halsnøy and enjoy the beautiful scenery. Therefore, if you are looking for a peaceful and beautiful walk, Englafjell and Ulvanosa are two very good qualities that dominate the Uskedalen and Eikedalen valleys. Seen from the hillsides, these two mountains quickly grab your attention. The floor is not in order. From 700-800 m you will settle on loose rocks and many dangerous slopes. Mannen is also part of this great mountain, but since it is a few hundred meters lower, this mountain does not dominate. The view of the Rosendal mountains, Folgefonna Glacier, Hardangerfjorden and the whole of Sunnhordland is yours if you find the strength to conquer one of these peaks. It is truly an unforgettable movie. Directly translated into English, Englafjell means "Angel Mountain" while Mannen means "Man."
On the map provided on this page, the height of Mannen is 1014 m. On the M711 map the height is 1013 m, the height to which I will refer in the following pages.
The point Englafjell has a point of 490 m, towards Ulvanosa high (1246 m).The last two sides of the 20m contour line (map M711) and this pass is 720m. The height of the Saddle is placed at 710m. This produces as of 31 and Hordaland, depending on what is basically. Mannen has a point of 223 m, above Englafjll (1200 m). The saddle is the top of the Eikedalen valley, north of Lake Jordsvatnet. The contour line in the last 20 m (map M711) measures 800 m. The contour lines are close to each other, suggesting that the height of the saddle is close to 800 m. However, for some parts in the pass on this pass, I play the saddle on 790m. By Bergen, follow the E16 road to Oslo.
On trenchmards, track the road 7 (Oslo) in Samnaardorden. After Bjørkheim, take exit 48 towards Mundheim/Gjermundshamn. From Mundheim, follow road 49 south to Gjermundshamn (since June 2003, road restrictions between Mundheim and Gjermundshamn apply). Take the ferry Gjermunshamn - Løfallstrand. From Løfallstrand, drive past Rosendal and Dimmelsvik, and after 18 km from the ferry, turn left to "Musland''. On the first descent (foot/feet), see a gravel road that goes straight, while another gravel road goes straight. Find parking here. The road
There is a door here, which can be opened. The sign "Englafjell" directs you from the shortcut to the high forest road. Pass the Englafjell sign again and you are on the forest road that leads to the Eikedalen valley. On your way to Eikedalen Valley, see a sign (on a tree, easy to miss) on your left, pointing to Englafjell. You will go down this way.
Eikesdalen
A forest road will take you to the Eikedalen valley, but it will not join the Eikedalen road from Storhaug. Cross the valley in a NW direction, find a stream crossing and join the Eikedalen path. The ascent from Eikedalen is very gentle, compared to the way you came (where you will descend). You have a beautiful channel on your left as you go up the valley. At a higher point in the valley, we reached a small plate where we continued on the rocks. The trail is marked in the shape of a "T" with red paint over the forest.
Men
At the top of Eikedalen you reach the Mannen-Englafjell station at the road junction. Left path towards Englafjell. Keep going straight Mannen. The road soon turns and runs along Lake Jordvatnet before turning north over Lake Svartavatnet. You will have spot 984 on your left as you go to Mannen. The first section above Svarta Vatnet lake is a mixture of grass and slippery rocks. It's not the easiest floor, but it's not hard either. The last 100 meters of high cross stone. The "T" path will lead you to a large cairn with a summit inscription on a blue base. The main meeting point is 2 minutes further east. Take the same route to return to the Englafjell/Mannen trail. Angleterre Fjell This is also a "T" marked road. The road leads you to Lake Lomatjørna, which you follow on the left.
Then continue the stream that runs from Lake 954 to Lake Lomatjørna. The slope goes up along the stream, but it won't be too difficult. You arrive at the saddle between Svartavasshorgi and Englafjell, above lake 954. Look to the left and follow the top of the saddle to the different points that lead to Englafjell. The remaining route to Englafjell crosses rocks. Be careful on this climb, as the rocks can be loose. The plateau is flat, where the sense of flatness is broken as you look down at the steep slopes above Lake 954. On the southern side of the plateau you see the cairn and log book. Come down
