Binoculars at a viewpoint where you can see the two sea stacks Risin and Kellingin.
Risin and Kellingin (Faroese for the giant and the bitch) are two large sea stacks at 81 and 68 meters in height off the Faroese island of Eysturoy.
A legend is associated with the two sea stacks. It is about Risin and Kellingin was helping Iceland to draw the Faroe Islands closer to Iceland. It failed and they became two sea stacks.
