Faroe Islands – Streymoy and Eysturoy

February 7, 2018 by Alex 3 Comments

Hills of Streymoy

Streymoy and Eysturoy are two of the largest islands of the entire Faroe archipelago and exploring them properly would take weeks, if not months. After all the other places we visited during our Faroe Islands trip, we just didn’t have enough time remaining to give them any sort of justice, especially with 2 straight days of miserable weather and non-stop rain that pretty much grounded us. So instead of trying to come up with a comprehensive guide to these islands, I will just list a few locations that in my opinion are definitely worth checking out, especially for photographers.

Faroe Islands – Kalsoy

October 25, 2017 by Alex 12 Comments

The island of Kalsoy offers some of the most magnificent views on the Faroe Islands and it is one of the places I wanted to visit the most during my trip. With its huge cliffs, green fields and unpredictable weather, it is absolutely breathtaking and somewhat scary at the same time.

Faroe Islands – Puffins of Mykines

October 10, 2017 by Alex 2 Comments

Mykines is the westernmost of all the Faroe Islands and is widely known for its population of seabirds, especially puffins, and a hiking trail leading to the lighthouse and offering nice views of the island’s picturesque shoreline. Connected to the rest of the Faroe Islands by both boat and helicopter, it makes for a popular day trip from Vágar, so during our visit to Faroes we decided to spend a day exploring this small island.

Faroe Islands – Hike to Drangarnir

September 19, 2017 by Alex 5 Comments

The hike to Drangarnir is another great and picturesque hike on the Faroe Islands and a definite favorite of mine. I would even go as far as saying that if I were to choose just a single place to experience on the islands, that would be it. Just as the hike to Trælanípa, this route can be found on the island of Vágar but, unlike the former, it is much longer and a lot more demanding.

Faroe Islands – Hike to Trælanípa

September 16, 2017 by Alex Leave a Comment

The Faroe Islands is, among other things, an outstanding place for hiking. There are a number of hiking routes on the islands, and in this article I would like to talk about perhaps the most famous one – the hike to Trælanípa. Located on the island of Vagar, this hike is both undemanding, easily accessible and incredibly beautiful, making it a popular choice for tourists and locals alike.
