Ein lættur og sera vakur túrur um Oyrnaskarð og Valdaskarð, har nógv er at síggja á leiðini

Bygdagøtan byrjar beint oman fyri viðalundina í Trongisvági. Fyrst verður gingið tvørtur um Stórá og síðan niðaneftir í Hvammhaga. Her síggja vit niðan í sermerkta Hvammabotn við sínum jøvnu og stóru víddum, sum eru umgirdar av brøttum líðum, og innast í botninum er Herðablaðið við Herðablaðsgjáunum báðumegin við. Høgrumegin Herðablaðið eru Gluggarnir, sum við sínum 610m er hægsta fjall í Suðuroy. Á leiðini niðaneftir er gott útsýni oman yvir Trongisvág og leiðina yvir í Hvannhaga við lítlu og stóru Dímun í baksýninum.


Komin tvørtur um Oyrnaskarð er stutt yvir á Valdaskarð, har gingið verður oman gjøgnum Harðgreips hamrar. Meðan gingið verður, sæst suður í Øravíkshagan.


Tað er sera vakurt at ganga um Valdaskarð, meðan Kirkjuvatn og Fámjin daga meira og meira undan. Tá ið so gingið verður oman til Kirkjuvatn, síggjast flottu hamrarnir til báðar síður. Høgrumegin, kallað Undir Homrum, verður gingið tætt undir tí niðasta hamrinum, sum er rættiliga høgur hamari úr vøkrum stabbagróti.


Haðan verður gingið fram við Kirkjuvatni, og síðan sunnanvert ánna gjøgnum rættina oman til Fámjin.


Farleiðin er væl merkt við varðum allan vegin frá parkeringsplássinum í Trongisvági til Fámjin.


Til ber at ganga túrin báðumegin frá. Túrurin er eitt sindur lættari at ganga úr Trongisvági
