What to do and see in Faroe Islands, Faroe Islands: The Best Lighthouses

September 7, 2021 Frederic Celentano

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.

Mykines Holmur Lighthouse

Reviewed By HHK131313 - Birkerod, Denmark

We were so lucky with the weather,so the boat trip was ok. The hiking was fantastic with lots of different birds and great view. The hiking fee is 250 per person. It is too much.

Kallur Lighthouse

Reviewed By 892vanessab - Riga, Latvia

Great hike worth the epic views! There is a washroom at the start and a small cafe when your done the hike in town, just ring the bell and someone will come out. After a windy wet day a hot coffee is amazing. They take debit too! The hike was moderate and you need the proper gear on. It’s steep to get the epic photos and windy! We took the first ferry over from Klaksvík at 0800hrs and and we were first ones on the island and had trail to ourselves, when we were back down at 1000hrs there were 8 cars arriving with people, so go early it’s worth it!

Skansin Fortress

Reviewed By kr0elle - Amman, Jordan

From Skansin you have a nice view onto business at the ferryport and Helsoy island (if weather permits). The climb up is easy and it is free of charge.
