Well-maintained cairns are throughout the hike except for the last stretch down to Selatrað, which has no cairns. Photo: Óli Gardshodn -
A beautiful and peaceful hike. The stretch from the pass and the next kilometre down through the gorge Trongannagjógv to Skála is especially interesting. Photo: Óli Gardshodn -
Many small peat storage huts are by the river Tvørá close to Selatrað. Photo: Óli Gardshodn -

Ein lættur og vakur túrur eftir vestara armi á Skálafjørðinum
Vakur og friðarligur túrur, sum er serliga áhugaverdur frá skarðinum og á leið ein kilometur oman til Skála ígjøgnum Trongmannagjógv.
Nógvar torvkráir eru at síggja við Tvørá tætt við Selatrað. Vallað og gott lendi allan vegin. Eitt sindur grýtut nakað vestan fyri skarðið. Gangast skal um tvey hegn, har stigi er. Gleivast skal um eitt hegn við bøgarðin á Selatrað.
Tað er lættast at finna gøtuna, tá ið gingið verður av Skála. Á Skála verður gingið niðan gjøgnum portrið við Gjógvará og síðan suður til gjónna, har eitt op er í hegninum, niðan til fyrsta varðan, sum sæst haðani. Góðir varðar eru allan vegin uttan seinasta strekkið oman til Selatraðar, har ongir eru.
Neyðugt er at hava GPX-fíluna við á túrinum, tí lætt er at fara skeivur av gøtuni og enda í Skálabotni heldur enn á Skála. Hetta kemst av, at niðasta strekkið við Selatrað – frá Breiðá og omaneftir – er sama gøta sum til Skálabotns.

Parking is available by the mission hall – see the green lines. The mission hall is only used Sunday evenings in winter, leaving ample parking the rest of the time.
From here, follow the old cattle trail up along the northern bank of the river Mittúnsá until you reach the rock wall, where you pass through an iron gate. Continue along the southern bank of Mittúnsá until you reach a fence which you need to climb over at its lowest point.
Plans are to install a ladder or gate here – see the blue line.
