Dunnesdrangar, Sea stacks on Vágar Island, Faroe Islands.
Two stone pillars rise 70 meters from the North Atlantic Ocean along the western coast of Vágar Island, near Sørvágur village.
The western coastal area of Vágar Island remained unexplored except for sheep herding activities until tourism development in recent years.
Local residents established guided tours to share geological information about these formations while protecting access to private agricultural lands.
Visitors must book an official guided tour, available Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 10 AM and 4 PM, for 450 DKK per person.
The surrounding non-flight zone, extending 5 kilometers from Vágar Airport, preserves the natural environment of these coastal formations.
