Having ascended from Langasandur, go first south along Ryssheiðar and Slættin, a beautiful and pleasant plain just above Langasandur. From there, go straight up the hillside Stígarnir. This stretch is somewhat strenuous but is grass-covered and good to walk. The rest of the hike is easy.

In Langasandshagi, first cross the beautiful river Norðara Gjánagjógvará, then continue on the plain for just over a kilometre until you reach the pass Streymneshálsur. From there, descend into the valley Saksunardalur, where you, for the most part, walk along the pleasant river Streymnesá and the steep area by the waterfalls called Streymnesfossar.

When you have descended to level ground, go across Dalá, a beautiful river, where you will reach the main road. In summertime, when it is dry, it is fairly easy to cross the river if you have normal hiking boots. However, the rocks in the river may be slippery. If it is rainy, the river swells, making it necessary to wade through it. Another option is to walk about 800 metres up the river, where a bridge crosses it. 

Few people take this hike, making it a peaceful walk. The views over the strait between Streymoy and Eysturoy, the valley Saksunardalur and the surrounding mountains is both beautiful and varied.

When crossing Dalá, look for the best place to cross. Weather permitting, it is possible to walk from the corner of the tributary between Dalá and Streymnesá, going a few metres down along the tributary and then straight across – as the gpx-file also shows.
