Bøsdalafossur waterfall

To get to the viewpoint, there is some climbing over slippery rocks involved. You position yourself at the edge of a steep cliff - pay attention!

The Bøsdalafossur waterfall is tucked away on the western coast of Vágar Island, just a short hike from the Traelanipa Cliffs. It's not the biggest waterfall you'll ever see, but what it lacks in size, it makes up for in beauty. The cascading water plunges into the North Atlantic Ocean, creating a stunning seascape. But what really captured my attention was the presence of Geituskoradrangur, a majestic sea stack rising from the ocean just a short distance from the waterfall. This iconic rock formation, a remnant of ancient volcanic activity, adds an extra layer of grandeur to the scene.
This spot is best to be combined with the Trælanípa cliffs, see above.
The additional walking time from the from Trælanípa Cliffs is only about 15 minutes, but it's worth noting that the path involves some climbing over rocks. Sturdy footwear and a good level of fitness are essential.
Once you climbed over the rocks you can position yourself at the edge of the cliff to have a good overview of the seascape, the small waterfall and the sea stack as a focus point.
