Fossvogsbakkar Shipwreck

Highlight • Structure

The shipwreck is clearly visible from the lookout point. It's not recommended to climb down to avoid damaging the coastline.

Fossvogur Bay Cycling and Walking Map

Highlight • Cycleway

Several cycle paths cross here. The board / map gives a good overview. Unfortunately I forgot to take a photo.
Followed the red trail north. Very comfortably laid out and well signposted.
