6 Trip suggestions - Bømlo Røyksundskanalen Around Siggjo (27,3 km) Ersland Rubbestadneset Foldrøyhamn Siggjarvåg When you come from Trekantsambandet (the Triangle Connection) and have cycled across Bømlabrua bridge, you come to Gassasundet sound. There is a car park here at the junction to Moster, which is the starting point for the Around Siggjo route. This is also where the round trip ends – at this junction on the Rv 541 road. But first, you cycle on a good 4-km walking and cycling path towards Siggjo. Follow this path on the outside of the Stokkajuvstunnelen tunnel. From the old road, you can look down on the old ferry quay in Siggjarvåg, which is now closed. The cycling path then comes to an end for a while. Sakseid Siggjo Håvik After 6.5 km, you come to the crossroads at Ekornsætre. Turn left here towards Langevåg. When you have cycled a little while on the Erslandsvegen road, you can see Mount Siggjo rise to your left. Cycle a further 3.3 km to Tormodsætre. At this crossroads, continue to follow the road to Langevåg on the left. The road then narrows somewhat and twists and turns a bit. Follow Erslandsvatnet lake a while until you come to a small picnic area on the right-hand side of the road. From here, there are idyllic views across Sakseidvågen bay. After another 2.5 km, turn left towards Håvik at the Sakseid T-junction. Pass the old vicarage at Finnås on your right, before you come to the lovely beach in Åreiddalen. It is 5.5 km from Åreiddalen to Håvik, and a further 2 km from Håvik to Røyksundkanalen canal. You cycle straight through Indre Håvik to get there. When you get to the crossroads at Røyksund, turn left again unless you want to take a short detour to Moster. It is 1 km from the crossroads to Gassasundet sound, which brings you to the end of the round trip. 200m Moster 0m 0m 5km 10km 15km 20km 25km Difficulty level: Medium Length: 27,3 km Surface: Tarmac Max. altitude: 130 m
Trip suggestions - Bømlo Brandasund 7 Svortland – Brandasund (32,9 km) The trip to Brandasund starts in Svortland. In Hollundskjosen (the roundabout), turn left towards Brandasund. After 1.5 km, you come to Urangsvåg and its sheltered marina. The county road north to Brandasund is a varied, fun cycle and is narrow and hilly in parts. The road crosses several islands that are connected by bridges, and there are great views of the islands and skerries. You can take detours to some nice places en route to Brandasund, such as Katla and Skinnhueneset. ‘Nillo på Skjèret’ once lived on the island of Torgjo (Torget). Today, her descendants run the traditional village shop there. Now, it is only a further 1.5 km to Brandasund, and you are surrounded by the ocean on almost all sides. When you arrive in picturesque Brandasund, you will see white-painted houses huddled together, with lots of passing boat traffic. You can grab a bite to eat here. There is also a small sales outlet for felted woollen products and a wood carver who can make just about anything. A walk to Brandasundsåta is also recommended while you are out at the ocean’s edge. It takes about 20 minutes to get to the top, where you get a real sense of being on top of the world. Follow the same road back to Svortland. The route has a total length of 32.9 km and an altitude difference of 58 metres.
