Moorland Trollatunguheidi rises to about 400 m above sea level and passes through landscapes with alternating rocky and barren undulating hills, bogs and lakes of which Lake Langavatn and Lake Midheidarvatn are the most prominent.

The highest rising point on the way is Mt Midheidarborg and the view enroute is magnificent.  To the west of the highest point of the road is the Arkotludalur Valley with two ruins of abandoned farms.  The driving distance between the farm Gautadalur in the Geiradalur Valley and Trollatunga in the Tunga County on the Steingrimsfiord Bay is about 23 km.
