Directions

Tjørnuvík is a cozy village nestled in the northernmost part of Streymoy . With a population of around 44 people, it's a charming spot known for its stunning views and unique landmarks like the Stakkur sea stack used for sheep grazing. Accessible via a scenic 5 km road from Haldórsvík, Tjørnuvík offers a peaceful escape with the iconic Risin og Kellingin sea stacks visible across the Sundini strait. Tourists used to cause a traffic jam in the summer, but a new traffic control system has improved things, and there are even plans for a tunnel in the future.
