Gjógv Natural Harbor

Kallur Lighthouse
Tourist attraction
👍👍 Absolutely stunning!! Not to be missed in the Faroese. The trail is super easy and short, and the views so rewarding. Lots of tourists but there is space for everyone and you can go at your own pace with the different ferry/bus schedules. The ridge might be a bit intimidating with strong winds or if...

Restaurant
👍👍 What drew us here was the great reviews and Rose’s Cafe lived up to those reviews. We got there early but Rose was kind and opened a bit early for us. The Cafe is located on the water with incredible views. The setting along the fjord alone is incredible. Parking is ample. The interior is intimate w...

Crownprincess Mary’s bench
Tourist attraction
👍👍 Some locals dove off a little beyond this point which was fun to watch. Walk along the cliff on the other side, at the minimum go a short distance to get a picture of the entire village with the gorge. You can also hike up to the sheep shed and see the bird cliff, about 45-60 min return, along the...

Camping
Campground
🫤 The amount of money you pay for a spot here is far from reasonable. I paid 200kr for only one night on my own for a tent spot. For half the amount (100kr) you get much more facilities on other campsites around. As there are here only 2 toilets you can use and it has no indoor area or whatsoever. Th...
