I spent exactly one week on the Faroe Islands working together with the local tourism board to show you an interesting mix of the best things to do in the faroe islands from outdoor adventures, iconic panoramas and food experiences to one of the largest festivals in the country named „G! Festival“.
Beside checking out the local attractions I got the chance to truly live like a local - I stayed with a local family for a few days, got invited by farmers for dinner and went hiking with one of the most famous outdoor adventurers.
Together with travel blogger Amanda Williams I rented a car and went on a road trip to the most popular instagram hot spots, got to do sea kayaking and said hi to Puffins on Mykines island. Visiting the annual G! festival was the perfect finish to a memorable trip…topping it off with a helicopter flight. What a ride!
This trip was executed within 7 days - following I list all the places I visited & Things to do in the Faroe Islands:
- Traelanipa (hiking with Reika Adventures)
- Torshavn
- Gasadalur & Mulafossur

Welcome to the Faroe Islands! The Faroe Islands in Danish means the Islands of the Sheep, and you will see why! It’s located in the middle of the North Atlantic Ocean about 400 miles off the coast of Northern Europe, between Norway and Iceland. The first people to colonize the islands were Norwegians about 1,200 years ago and it become a major Viking settlement in that time. Its main industries are fishing and tourism - people come to experience its natural beauty, incredible bird life and delicious Faroese gastronomy.
First up is Gasadalur, which for a long time it was the most isolated town in the Faroe Islands. It’s a very popular town to hike to because of its natural scenery and its cliff views. In 2006 they opened a tunnel to make the town more accessible. Fun fact: Gasadalur means Goose Valley.
Lake Sorvagsvatn is the biggest lake in the Faroe Islands. It has an area of 3.4 sqkm, and its located on the island of Vagar, where the airport is. It takes a few hours to hike around the entire lake, so get your hiking boots ready! The best way to see the lake is by helicopter, the only way to see the lake emptying out into the Atlantic Ocean.
Torshavn is one of the smallest and most pleasant capital cities in the world! Torshavn in Old Norse means Thor, God of Thunder. It’s a modern city with the highest concentration of hotels, restaurants and cafes in the islands. You can explore the old Tinganes district where the parliament building is. You can see the national museum, check out some galleries, see the harbor and dine at some delicious modern and traditional restaurants.
Now we head to the southernmost village in Streymoy, Kirkjubour. This was the religious center on the Faroe Islands for over 1,000 years until the reformation. We came to see the 13th century ruins of the Saint Agnes Cathedral, the House museum and a middle age church.
We head north on Streymoy to Saksun. This is a beautiful town with turf roof houses. The best time come is during low tide because you can see the beach and walk on a sand bar to the lagoon. There are no restaurants here so be sure to bring a snack for a picnic!
Tjornuvik is the northernmost town on the island of Streymoy. It’s a quiet village, but the scenery is beautiful its beach has epic views of the Atlantic Ocean.
Next up is Gjogv, the northernmost town on the Island of Eysturoy, the second largest island in the Faroes. It’s a small scenic village with a charming bed and breakfast. We stayed a night, but you can just as easily just come for the day. Gjogv is undoubtedly on of most picturesque places in the Faroe Islands. The name Gjogv means gorge – it was named after the village’s natural gorge
Klaksvik is the second largest town in the country and from here you can take a ferry to Kalsoy. I suggest you pass by Bakariio Jorun (Bakery Jorun) and grab a snack or lunch. They have plenty of Danish-style toasts with different toppings, as well as homemade pastries, coffee, and beverages.
A 25-minute ferry ride will take you to Kalsoy, AKA island of the man. There is one road that travels up the east side of the island connecting a handful of villages. Kalsoy is the best place in the Faroe Islands to go hiking. Or, you can just drive around and snap tons of photos of this picturesque island.
Next is Vidoy, the northernmost island in the archipelago. Here we visited Vidareidi. The northern islands are more traditional, less modern but if you love taking photos of amazing scenery then you must visit Vidareidi.
Lastly we are heading to the Island of Mykines! We took a helicopter but you can also take a ferry. Once you arrive you need to hike about 90 minutes west to see all the sea birds. There are over a dozen species of birds like the Gannet, Fulmar, Starling, Gulls, Razorbills and the most famous that everyone comes to see are the Puffins! Be sure to bring a packed lunch, drinking water, a warm outfit, comfy shoes, and don’t forget your camera!

Ocean Adventurer Cruise: Visit Torshavn, Faroe Islands
7th Century Irish monks may have been the first settlers but they certainly weren't the last. An adorable town with Viking history and sod-covered roofs.
Ferries regularly sail between Aberdeen and the Faroe Islands.

The Faroe Islands: Vágar
An adventure to the island of Vágar, allows you the opportunity to experience some of the best scenery the Faroe Islands have to offer.

Aarstova - Torshavn, Faroe Islands
David’s Been Here is touring the best flavors and top historic sites of the Faroe Islands’ capital city of Torshavn. In this travel clip, David combines the best of both worlds with a visit to Aarstova. Situated in one of the oldest buildings/houses in Torshavn (dating back to the 1600’s), this unique restaurant specializes in authentic, rustic Faroese cuisine. Using local ingredients and family-style serving, Aarstova plays off the antiquated atmosphere of the house giving its guests a truly memorable dining experience. If you love shellfish, fish and/or lamb (their signature braised lamb leg dish is amazing!), then a visit to this idyllic Torshavn restaurant is a must!

The Faroe Islands: Mykines
I have never felt more in touch with nature as I did on the day I visited Mykines in the Faroe Islands. This small island feels massive in size as you are surrounded with steep hills and sheer cliffs overlooking the cold Northern Atlantic. Not only is the scenery incredible, the island is packed with a wide array of wildlife including puffins. Hiking through out the high and sheer cliffs offers incredible views into the surrounding area, specifically the Mykines Hólmur Lighthouse. This video highlights some of the most incredible scenery from a trip to Mykines
We were very happy to follow along with MMTours on their great Tuesday excursion. Follow the link below for a full look into the excursion and itinerary! =)

VERTICAL a trip to Faroe Islands
NEW TRAVEL VIDEO !
Si je devais utiliser un seul mot pour décrire les îles Féroe , ce serait VERTICAL . Des falaises de plusieurs centaines de mètres de haut , plus grandes que la tour Eiffel , au point de m'en donner des cauchemards la nuit . A travers cette video j'ai retranscrit un périple de 5 jours qui a eu lieu au mois de Mars 2019 .
Les îles Feroes sont une destination dont on fait vite le tour mais qui réserve son lot de sensations fortes .
The Faroe Islands - Photography Workshop - July 2019
Together with my friend Páll Jökull I have done a photography workshop in the Faroe Islands last week. (July 2019) We guided a group of 5 photographers in several islands of the country. Spending a couple of days photographing and exploring the Islands.
The Faroe Islands are stunning. Come join Páll and myself next year, on our next Faroe Islands photo tour, taking place in May. More info and bookings on these links:

Faroe Islands Tourism
Captivating natural beauty, ancient lore, and secret solitude... Combine this with a culture of celebration and it's easy to see why the Faroe Islands are considered by many the best kept secret in Europe.
Dazzling landscapes offer a variety of activities such as fishing, hiking, camping, and boat trips. No wonder National Geographic has named the Faroe Islands the best islands to visit in the world.
Situated between Iceland, Norway, and the UK, the Faroe Islands are home to roughly 50,000 people, and one of the world's smallest capitals, Torshavn.
Landing in Faroe Islands-Airbus A 320 neo SAS/die Färöer Insel/las Islas Faroe/les îles Féroé
The Faroe Islands is a self-governing archipelago, part of the Kingdom of Denmark. It comprises 18 rocky, volcanic islands between Iceland and Norway in the North Atlantic Ocean, connected by road tunnels, ferries, causeways and bridges. Hikers and bird-watchers are drawn mountains, valleys and grassy heathland, and steep coastal cliffs that harbor thousands of seabirds.
Total area is about 1,400 square kilometres (540 sq mi) with a population of about 51.000
