Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: This photo was taken in wintertime on Norðbergseiði west of the village Hvalba in Suðuroy, Faroe Islands. That giant rock on the foot of the cliff was a part of the cliff, but it crashed down sometimes in the 1980'ies. The people of Hvalba heard it and felt it. The distance between the east and west coast is very short in Hvalba, around 1 km. There are two so-called Eiði in Hvalba, both on the west coast, the other eiði is called Hvalbiareiði or Fiskieiði and used to be a fish harbour. This place used to be a dumping place for garbage, but the last decades all garbage in the Faroe Islands has been collected and burned. Norðbergseiði is developing into a tourist attraction. In 2009 men from Hvalba started to offer rappelling for tourists. People come here to enjoy the view. A road goes all the way to the edge of Norðbergseiði.
Føroyskt: Norðbergseiði er tað norðara av tveimum eiðum vestanfyri Hvalba í Suðuroynni. Stóri kletturin sum sæst á myndini rapaði einaferð í 1980'árunum. Fólk sum vóru stødd heima í bygdini hoyrdu brestin og merktu skjálvtan. Norðbergseiði var fyrr brúkt til skrellipláss, men sum aðrastaðir í Føroyum verður burturkast ikki longur tveitt í náttúruna men verður savnað saman og brent á brennistøðum. Norðbergseiði er í ferð við at blíva eitt ferðavinnumál. Hvalbingar fóru í 2009 í holt við at bjóða ferðafólki síging á Norðbergseiði, tað er umleiði 40 metrar niður á helluna. Bergið sum sæst á myndini er 172 metrar høgt. Tangin eitur Kolaratangi. Alt fjallið sum hetta bergið er partur av eitur Grímsfjall og er tað 326 metrar høgt á hægsta staðnum. Grímsfjall skilur bæði eiðini. |
