Faroe Islands
The Faroe Islands are a North Atlantic landscape of steep green villages, seabird cliffs and living sheep and fishing communities shaped by weather.

At the north-east tip of Eysturoy, Gjógv takes its name from a 200-metre sea-filled gorge that has long served as the village's natural harbour; walk its rim for the view out to sea.

Travel tips
Travel by Ildy tips
- From Vágar Airport, take bus route 300 to Tórshavn. It runs the length of Vágar and through the undersea tunnel to Streymoy, taking roughly an hour, and ends at the Farstøðin bus terminal on the harbour, so you need no car for the transfer.
- Taste skerpikjøt, mutton legs wind-dried for five to nine months in a slatted hjallur shed; the process starts in the cold autumn, and the meat is eaten thinly sliced on bread without cooking.
- Be in Tórshavn on 28–29 July for Ólavsøka: the rowing finals are held on the 28th, the Løgting opens its session on the 29th, and the night ends in the Faroese chain dance, open to everyone.
- Driving from Streymoy to Eysturoy, you pass through the Eysturoy Tunnel, opened in 2020, which holds the world's first undersea roundabout.
