#620 Stone Wall

Stone Wall, Tjørnuvík, Faroe Islands

About this stone

Above a charming village known as the northernmost settlement in the Faroe Islands, this stone wall sits along a hiking trail where views begin to open over clustered turf-roofed houses and the valley below. The area is famous for its black-sand beach with views toward striking sea stacks, and the village itself holds historical significance as a site of Viking burial grounds. This is the first good place to pause on the way up the trail, offering a natural stopping point to take in the landscape. A penguin stone now rests hidden within the rocks here, waiting to be discovered by the next curious wanderer who stops to admire the view.
