Top 10 Sights & Landmarks in Faroe Islands, Faroe Islands

November 4, 2021 Myesha Cogley

Bobbing in the frothing North Atlantic, the remote, 18-piece Faroes are a picturesque patchwork of emerald pastures, dotted with sheep, gaily-hued cottages and tree-free moors. The sea is never more than three miles distant in this proud, assured land, where deep-rooted traditions remain strong. The coasts boast deep fjords, steep cliffs and looming headlands. Explore these fjords by wooden sloop or sail the coast by schooner. Walk the fells and brave the unpredictable weather to puffin spot.

Kopakonan

Reviewed By Klardromm - Trondheim Municipality, Norway

Mykladalur is fanatastic! Only a few houses and green tall cliffs that goes right in to the ocean, where you can take the stairs down to see the Seal Woman. Make sure to read the story about her before you go. It is a magical place with tiny waterfalls and waves. We went with MMtours.

Tinganes

The attractive, historic centre of Torshavn, with old grass-roofed buildings. The headquarters of the Faroese Government is based here.

Reviewed By earthtravelller

Lovely picturesque compact area in the centre of Torshavn between the two harbours and steeped in history. This is the location of the Faroese Parliament and Government buildings, narrow cobbled streets, grass roofed cottages and a photographic opportunity at every turn. Well maintained and a living area with residents rather than a museum, an absolute must see in this tiny capital.

Olavskirkjan

Reviewed By ivart2017

The Olavskirkjan is a part of the three churches at Kirkjubour. It is still in use even it is very old. The church invites the visitors to pray in silence but you are also welcome to study the architecture and changes to it over time. The wood structure in the tower is wonderfull and of very high level of craftmanship. A must place to visit!

Sandavagur Church

Reviewed By RoelR - Wuustwezel, Belgium

If you want to visit Trollkonufingur, this is the town you'll need to park or at least drive trough. Beautiful scenery and a very special church indeed.
