Lagt af stað gönguleiðina upp að steini en farið upp með læknum og stefnan tekin á mastur sem er þar fyrir ofan, þegar komið er að vegslóða ertu alveg að verða komin/n. Niðurleiðin byrjar á grýttum slóða og skiptist svo yfir á malarslóða sem liggur niður að skóginum.

Fínt að leggja á bílastæðinu fyrir neðan esjuna.

      Vinsamlegast athugið að ekki er æskilegt að vera með hjól á leiðinni upp að Steini. Mælum heldur með jeppaleiðinni úr Kollafjarðarbotni, þar er nýtt bílastæði og fín aðkoma í fleiri hjólaleiðir.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
