Hiking
Hiking is a great way to experience our beautiful nature. You don’t have to go far to experience our magnificent and breathtaking nature. Below this article we have a selection of guided hikes, that provide you with local knowledge and storytelling.
IMPORTANT
We reccomend going with a local guide to ensure your safety and to give you the best experience.
Remember to ask permission if your hike is not on a marked path. By Faroese legislation, you are not allowed to wander freely in the wilderness. You are only allowed to walk on the old village paths, if other arrangements have not been made.
If you go with a local guide, the guide will ensure that you have the necessary permission.
If you hike on your own, please let someone in the village know you’re going. We reccomend this for safety reasons, and to avoid you getting in the middle of e.g. sheepherding or hare hunting (November 2nd to December 31st).
Please take a look at the guide to safe hiking before your hike.
