Gjógv

A village of colourful houses on the northern tip of the island of Eysturoy, named after a deep sea-filled gorge that forms a natural harbour, with steps down to the water. Walks lead along the cliffs with views of the sea stacks Risin and Kellingin.
Nearby is Slættaratindur, the highest mountain in the Faroes (880 m), an easy climb on a clear day. The guesthouse in the village serves traditional food. It's about an hour from Tórshavn.
