    A 313 m tall monolith on the south-east side of Sandavágur

    The associated legend is this is the finger of the witch that came to throw the Faroe Islands to Iceland. When the witch reached the sea south of Vágar the sun came up, she turned to stone then fell in to the sea. The witch was so tall the back of her head and finger still remained above the surface, the back of her head is the island of Koltur, and the finger is Trøllkonufingur.

    The naturally formed rock in the form of a Trollweibfingers / Hexenfinges, which sticks out of a cliff, therefore, has its name.
    Supposedly he was first climbed, but you can not climb yourself, as it would be too dangerous. But the breathtaking view alone is worth a stopover.
