Gjógv (pronounced [tʃɛkv], literally: gorge, geo) is a village located on the northeast tip of the island of Eysturoy, in the Faroe Islands and 63 km (39 mi) north by road from the capital of Tórshavn.
The village was named after a 200-metre (650 ft) long sea-filled gorge that runs north to the sea from the village.
