Beschrijving

The village of Gásadalur is famous for the Múlafossar waterfall, but is also a nice birding location. Both at the waterfall and at the bird cliffs on the north side of the village, you can experience the seabirds. The species that you can often see above the sea are Papegaaiduiker, Kleine Jager and Grote Jager. Also Jan-van-gent regularly fly by. Noordse Stormvogel is also easy to spot and beautiful to observe. On the water you can find Zwarte Zeekoet. They regularly take off, making them easy to observe.

Just before the village, next to the road, there is a colony of Noordse Stern. And when walking through the village, to the slightly higher bird cliffs, you can encounter species such as Graspieper and Tapuit.
