Eiðiskollur

EiðiskollurEiði, Faroe IslandsShort but incredible hike near Eiði to the top of this 300+ meter sea cliff. Once up you get amazing 360 degree views. Trail starts at the highest point of the town so just drive up the winding road. There is some parking there and the hike takes maybe 45 min up max. There are some old ruins of ww2 watchtowers, and loads of birds flying around. #views #photography #hiking

Anywhere you look, the view is dramatic.
