Discover the legendary Nykur, a mischievous aquatic beast from Faroese folklore at Lake Sørvágsvatn. This mysterious creature, resembling a gray horse with inverted hoofs, lures unsuspecting passersby to the edge of the lake before pulling them underwater in a terrifying barrel roll. But fear not! If you shout out the Nykur's name, it loses all power and flees back into the depths of the lake. Keep your eyes peeled for this enchanting creature as you traverse the scenic surroundings of Lake Sørvágsvatn – just remember to stay on land and keep a safe distance from the water's edge!
