Highlights

  • Mulafossur waterfall 02

    Stunning Múlafossur waterfall

    The perfect photo backdrop, the Múlafossur waterfall plunges into the North Atlantic leaving behind Gásadalur, a small village and the home to about 20 people. Settled under the highest mountain on Vágar island, Gásadalur until recently could only be accessed by foot.

    Mykines island’s puffin colony

    The breeding ground for a wide range of migratory seabirds, Mykines has been identified as an Important Bird Area by BirdLife International. The western part of the island is covered with puffin burrows and seabird nests.

  • Torshavn faroe islands

    Tórshavn, the capital of the Faroe Islands

    Admire the history and beauty of Tórshavn's red-painted wooden buildings covered with turf roofs. Home to the Faroese government and a former Viking trading centre, this nation's capital is a splendid little city to explore. The National Art Gallery is a treasure, surrounded by gorgeous grounds with walking trails.

  • Iceland the realm of the active earth

    Iceland, the realm of the active earth

    At the edge of the Arctic Circle, Iceland is dominated by geology—and defined by the sea. Volcanoes, waterfalls, mountains, fjords, sea stacks, bird cliffs, lava fields, glaciers, and caves… even if you’re not a geologist, Iceland has something for you!

  • Orkney Scotland

    Neolithic Scottish history – only seen by sea!

    Off the north coast of mainland Scotland, Orkney has been settled for at least eight thousand years. Many Neolithic archeological sites have been preserved here, including villages, ceremonial sites, and burial chambers.
