Nachricht von Rannvá Joensen

Risin og Kellingin, also known as The Giant and the Witch, are two sea stacks off the coast of Eysturoy in the Faroe Islands. Legend has it that they were turned to stone while trying to move the islands to Iceland. Visitors can catch a glimpse of these iconic formations by walking north from Eiði or from Tjørnuvík on a clear day. However, geologists predict that the witch stack, Kellingin, may fall into the sea in the next few decades due to winter storms. So, if you want to see her standing on two legs, better hurry up!
