the rocking stones
An unusual natural phenomenon at Oyndarfjørður, two very large boulders which permanently stand rocking in the ocean, just a few metres from the shore. The stones have been rocking as far back as anyone can tell. Of geological interest, but some may find it visually a bit underwhelming, as the movement is very small.
The historic wooden church in Funningur.
The low rolling hills around the idyllic lake, have the widest stretches of heather on the islands. They are considered unique in the Faroes. Furthermore, the terrain is a splendid choice for an outing.
the Giant and his Wife
From the top of an easily accessible mountain you can lie on your stomach and look vertically down on the two magnificent basalt sea stacks Risin and Killingin. Legend has it that the two giants had come to tow the Faroes back with them to Iceland. However, the sun rose and they were both turned into stone. They both stand looking towards Iceland which they will never reach.
