Múli lies on the outermost northern edge of Borðoy's east coast. The origins of the settlement can be traced back to the 14th century.[1] Múli became the last community in the archipelago to receive electricity in 1970. It was later connected with Norðdepil by Road 743 in an attempt to stop depopulation. Nevertheless, Múli has been considered abandoned since 2002, though there are still four registered residents. During the summer months, some of its former residents use their old houses as vacation homes.
