Kollafjørður - Skælingur
![hike poster](https://vfibackend.com/uploads/1106_large.jpg)
An easy, peaceful and beautiful hike
The hike between Kollafjørður and Skælingur is beautiful with great views over the strait of Vestmanna and the island of Vágar. The view is better walking toward Skælingur as well as the hike being less strenuous as you start up high.
The start of the path at either end is not very well marked, but otherwise cairns lead you most of the way. If you start at Kollafjørður, you can just see the first cairn after passing the road if you look carefully.
There is good parking where the path begins in Skælingur.
