InselTrip Färöer

The 18 sheep islands of the Faroe Islands shine in vibrant colors. The rugged, untamed nature allows for a variety of activities. Nature trails lead to roaring waterfalls and jagged cliffs. The postal ship takes you through the magnificent fjord landscape to the islands of Svínoy and Fugloy. On the bird island of Mykines, you can observe puffins, and in remote villages like Bøur, the Faroe Islands reveal their enchanting authenticity. Culture enthusiasts will enjoy traditional island festivals and cave concerts.
