Ein avbjóðandi túrur við vøkrum útsýni yvir Sundalagið
Túrurin ímillum Funning og Svínáir er ein krevjandi og vakur túrur, har gingið verður niðan í hæddirnar. Túrurin varir góðar 3 tímar.
Bygdagøtan kann vera torfør at finna, tí ongi serstøk frámerki eru um gøtuna, og hon sæst ikki meginpartin av túrinum. Tí er týdningarmikið at hava GPS-fíluna við.
Lendið er vallað og gott, men eitt sindur grýtut ígjøgnum Kvíandal. Portur eru ikki sett upp á leiðini, og tí er neyðugt at gleiva (varliga) um trý hegn á leiðini.
Fleiri varðar eru á leiðini, men eru í støðum nærum ósjónligir, tí teir eru so gamlir og rapaðir.
Gøtan kann verða gingin báðar vegir, so veðurforsøgn og flutningsmøguleikar kunnu avgera tað.

Hæddarmetrar
The walk is suitable for children 10 years and older. The duration, elevation gain and the steep stretch up from Funningur makes the walk unsuitable
Difficult
- The path is good for walking with no crags, but the elevation gain is significant. The first stretch from Funningur is quite steep, and so is the stretch through the hill of Hóvabrekkan up to the valley Kvíandalur
Grass-covered and good for walking, a little rocky through Kvíandalur Valley. Three fences must be climbed over
