Isole Faroe
Un arcipelago poco frequentato tra Islanda e Norvegia
Faroe Islands, Eystruroy - Eidi
Eystruroy - Eidi 19.07.2012r.
Between Eiði and Gjogv in Eysturoy
Eysturoy is the second largest island and lies about midway in the island group, between the Northern islands and Streymoy. Eysturoy is 268 km2 in area. The population on Eysturoy is approx. 11,000 people.
Starting from one end of the island there's the beautiful village Gjógv, where the nature is amazing - you can go and see the bird cliffs where puffins are (bring your binoculars). There's one hotel in the village, called Gjáargardur. Drive about 20 mins from Gjogv there's Eidi - on the north-west end of Eysturoy.
In Eidi Just beside Eidi there are two sea stacks just off the northern coast of the island. called on faroese Risin and Kellingin (The Giant and the Witch). The Giant (Risin) is the 71m stack further from the coast, and the witch (Kellingin) is the 68m pointed stack nearer land, standing with her legs apart. A legend tells how, once upon a time, the giants in Iceland were envious and decided that they wanted the Faroes. So the giant and the witch (his wife in some versions of the story) were sent down to the Faroe Islands to bring them back.They reached the north-westernmost mountain Eiðiskollur (see map), and the giant stayed in the sea while the witch climbed up the mountain with a heavy rope to tie the islands together so that she could push them onto the giant's back. However, when she attached the rope to the mountain and pulled, the northern part of the mountain split. Further attempts were also unsuccessful, and they struggled through the night, but the base of the mountain was firm and they could not move it. They continued to struggle and they didn't notice time passing, and as dawn broke a shaft of sunlight put a stop to their efforts by turning them to stone on the spot. They have stood there ever since, staring longingly across the ocean towards Iceland.
The stacks can be viewed by walking north from Eiði then turning east towards the coast and following the low cliffs for a short way or you can also get a good view of them if you drive to Tjørnuvík onto the island Streymoy.
Between Eidi and Gjogv is the largest mountain in the Faroe Islands, called Slættaratindur and is 882 metres high. Its name means flat summit. It can be climbed in about four hours, and although the routes are steep, technical climbing skills are not necessary to reach the summit. In good weather the summit gives views over the entire archipelago. Slættaratindur is one of ten mountains in the Faroe Islands which rise to over 800m above sea level. Gráfelli, the second-highest peak at 856 m, lies just to the north-east of Slættaratindur. Funningur is a nice place to visit with your family when the weather is good. There's a great river in the village where children have a great time playing every summer. Elduvík is located in the Funningsfjørður-inlet on Eysturoy's northeast side. The village is split into two parts by a small river. . Visible from Elduvík is the nearby island of Kalsoy.
The village Funningsfjørður is located at the end of a fjord of the same name ('Fjørður' is the Faroese word for 'fjord'). The village was founded in 1812. There was a whaling-station in Funningsfjørður from 1902 to 1913.
Oyndarfjørður is a cosy little village on the northeastern coast of the Eysturoy. The town's church dates from 1838. The village is famous for it's two rocking stones ( rinkusteinar), located in the sea nearby. They are rocking forth and back all the time. To visualize this a rope is tied on to the rocks and ashore and people can go and hold the rope and feel the movements.
Strendur is located on the west side of Skálafjørður-inlet on Eysturoy. The wool factory Snældan, which started in 1949, is at Strendur. The factory started out as a spinning factory and then later began to knit clothes. Árni Ziska who makes ornaments from Faroese stone also lives in Strendur. He has made among other things the memorial for fishermen lost at sea, which stands out on the point. The Sjóvar church from 1834 is a beautiful wooden church and the fifth oldest in the country.
