Pingeyrar church is near the Ring Road (6 km away, by a gravel road). It was built in the 19th century on the same place where it once existed a monastery.

It's view is an impressive sight and it is clearly visible many miles away. A trip here is highly advisable.

On the site there is absolutely nothing since the near farm is about 1 km away, and it's only a farm!
