The Faroe Islands, located far out in the North Atlantic, impress by their rugged beauty and untamed nature. With ever-changing light shaped by wind and clouds, lush green meadows, pitch-black beaches, and majestic cliffs, the landscape is perfect for impressive hikes. The Rother Walking Guide 'Faroe Islands' features 50 carefully selected hikes through this fascinating island world.



The hikes are as diverse as the Faroes themselves: they range from short walks to spectacular viewpoints and hikes through remote high valleys, to adventurous multi-day treks to the distant outposts of the archipelago. The routes lead through picturesque villages with grass-covered roofs, along bird-rich sea cliffs, and through mysterious narrow tunnels. Some hikes are only accessible by small ferries, which may stay in harbour during rough seas. And often, only sheep and seabirds will cross your path.



Each hike comes with a reliable route description, a detailed map, and an accurate height profile. Verified GPS tracks ensure safe navigation through the wild terrain. With valuable tips on equipment, safety, permits, and accommodation, the Rother Walking Guide provides all the essential information needed for a successful hiking holiday in the Faroes.



The Faroe Islands await your discovery-off the beaten path, full of mystery and natural beauty. The Rother Walking Guide is an indispensable companion for unforgettable adventures in Northern Europe!
