Lóndrangar
Lóndrangar a pair of single sharp cliffs or volcanic plugs of basalt been hewn out of softer surrounding rock by erosion. At 75 m and 61 m respectively, they are a singular sight, rising above and outside the ocean front due east across from Malarrif and some 10 km from Hellnar, on the southern coast of Snæfellsnes peninsula. History has it so that the taller of the cliffs was ascended and climbed in 1735 while the smaller one was left alone until 1938, or so the story goes.
Lóndrangar are a pair of volcanic plugs left out as remnants from a bigger crater which has mostly eroded away with time, all though it is reckoned that the rock in the slopes of nearby Svalþúfa is part of the original rim around the crater itself, with the rest erode away by the sea. There is some considerable nesting of birds in the steep slopes of the twin cliffs and various kind of birds to be observed in Lóndrangar, the majority of which are Rita, Langvía, lundar and fýlar. A while back the coastal area around Lóndrangar, Drangsvogur, would be used for landing of fishing vessels with 12 fishing boats making use of it as a natural harbour in its heyday.
