    Trøllkonufingur (witch's finger or troll woman's finger) is a 313 m (1026 feet) tall monolith on the southeast side of Sandavágur.

    Legend has it that Trøllkonufingur is the finger of a witch that came to throw Vágar island to Iceland. When she went to the sea south of Vágar, the sun rose, and she was turned into stone and fell into the ocean. The back of her head is Koltur island.

    Only 11 people are known to have reached the top. The latest successful climb was in 2016.
