Strendur Tourist Information
The village of Strendur is located on the tip of land at the entrance to the fiord. In this very fertile farming area there is a spinning mill, Snældan, which features knitwear made of Faroese wool. Her kan du også selv prøve at spinde på den gamle måde og føle historien passere gennem dine fingre, mens du oplever, hvordan det ældste håndværk på Færøerne stadig lever. Strendur has a community house with a cinema. The souvenirs of Árni Ziska, stone cutter, made of Faroese stones are displayed in the house. Here special Faroese evenings are arranged for tourists during the summer. Up the western coast from Strendur is the little village of Selatrað with good tourist facilities. The scouts’ camping ground is open to the tourists for overnight stays and for outdoor activities. Traditional Faroese rowboats are available. From Selatrað guided tours are arranged to a very special landscape with gorges and enormous stone columns. On return to the village, traditional Faroese food is served for the participants. The churches in Eysturoy are worth visiting. Five of the beautiful ancient wooden churches are preserved and the modern churches of Fuglafjørður, Gøta and Toftir are of high architectural interest.
