Eighteen colorful islands
The Faroe Islands are an isolated mosaic of 18 islands in the North Atlantic, where dark cliffs, deep green fjords and motley houses set the scene. Connected by bridges and tunnels, the islands are the scene of Viking descendants and Irish monks, a small community rich in ancient traditions and culture. Known for its vibrant art and music scene, it is notorious for the controversial annual pilot whale hunt.
Fjords with amazing views surrounded by Viking culture
Among other things, the Faroe Islands are known for their beautiful fjords. Some of the most striking fjords are Skálafjørður, the longest fjord in the archipelago, and Funningsfjørður, located on the island of Eysturoy, known for its depth and the steep mountains along its shores. You will enjoy insane views here. On the same island you will find the wide fjord Gøtuvík, located in the area that was also home to the famous Viking Tróndur í Gøtu so you can also admire the impressive ancient Viking culture here.
Pure and unspoiled natural beauty
Nature in the The Faroe Islands is unspoiled, pure and desolate. Rough sheep mow the green undulating meadows, puffins hunt above the sea and northern petrels soar over dizzying chasms. Take advantage of the long light days and brave the constantly changing weather. You can make the most beautiful hikes, you can go mountain biking, which is a delight and you can enjoy the rides of your life on horseback. Explore the cliffs by kayak or helicopter before feasting on local cuisine featuring fermented lamb and fish, rye bread, black pudding and stewed rhubarb. Where the world can't find you...
