Beinisvørð Travel Guide

By Verified Expert

Beinisvørð is the most famous peak in Suðuroy Island in the untamed Faroe Islands. This mountain is located northwest of the village Sumba. Beinisvørð is a striking 470 m sea cliff.

The impressive cliff towers high above the village Lopra. Here the landscape falls to a sheer drop with the Atlantic Ocean below.

When you take the meandering mountain road Hesturin from the village Lopra to Sumba, you will get a glimpse of Beinisvørð. You will also see the mountain in a distance from the vantage point Eggjarnar.
