A day in Elduvík

Fringed by towering mountains and straddling the river Stórá, Elduvík is a charming village which is well worth exploring. 

During your visit here, you may have the opportunity to join a leisurely guided hike up to the viewpoint above the village to admire the coastal views. Or perhaps you’ll be treated to a Faroese chain dance or some hymn singing in the local church. Whatever the day has in store, it’s sure to be a memorable one.
