Eysturoy is the second largest island in the Faroe Islands and offers more than it’s fair share of sights, excursions and experiences. On of the most popular places for tourists lies at the northern end. Both in and out of season the guesthouse, Gjáargarður, in the small village Gjógv is well visited. For centuries the villagers’ only acces to the sea has been through the gorge, from which the village has taken its name.
