What to Know About Eysturoya sýsla

Key Facts

Eysturoya sýsla is one of the six traditional administrative regions, or sýslur, of the Faroe Islands, an autonomous territory within the Kingdom of Denmark. It is located on and named after the island of Eysturoy, which is the second-largest island in the archipelago and situated in the central part of the island chain, immediately east of the main island of Streymoy. The region encompasses the entirety of Eysturoy island, an area of approximately 286 square kilometers characterized by dramatic, rugged mountains, deep valleys, and a highly indented coastline. While specific population figures for the sýsla itself are not commonly separated from the island's total, the island of Eysturoy is home to around 11,500 people, making it the second most populous island. The sýsla is not subdivided into municipalities in the same way as other regions; instead, the island's settlements form their own municipalities. The landscape is dominated by peaks like Slættaratindur, the highest mountain in the Faroe Islands, and is connected to Streymoy by the subsea Streymin Bridge. This region is a vital hub of Faroese culture and industry. To find specific postal codes for the towns and villages within Eysturoya sýsla, you can search by municipality name on this site.
