Fiskastykkið // Úti á Gjógv
Cafe
👍👍 One of the best restaurant on Faroe Islands, if not the best one!
It’s really cosy and well design.
The food is very delicious.
We were there twice. First one for coffee and rhabarub cake and secondly for dinner.
We ate fishsoup, which was so tasty.

Trælanípa
Tourist attraction
👍 Incredible place, we’ll worth the hike! Standing on the edge of the cliffs is breathtaking. You are permitted to fly your drone here - make sure it’s not too windy the day you go!
Also there are many sheep along the way.
Only 1 star off for the steep price for the hike though.

Vágar Airport
International airport
👍 This is a small yet busy airport. Only one airline operates out of the airport, Atlantic Airways. The lines were quick. In the pre security area there is a small shop and place to grab some food. The space can get crowded if more than one flight is leaving. It is clean. Security was fast. Once past...

Witches Finger Trail
Hiking area
👍👍 Trail is very easy to follow! After parking the road is only for residents. Free to visit!
Even on a foggy day I was still able to see a bit of the cliff, so by the end of the day I went back and had this amazing view!
I am glad there wasn’t an entrance fee 😄

Bónus
Grocery store
😠 This shop is the worst! The staff is really unfriendly and they are all kids. One adult at a time, the rest are kids. The worst is the middle age blonde woman. They are really bad organised and there is no system in the shop. I would highly recommend to every tourist to never go into that shop. I ha...

Sørvágsvatn
Tourist attraction
😠 Access is not free anymore in this part of the Faroe Islands. At least for the tourists. 2 weeks ago they decided to regulate the number of humans allowed to see this beautiful place : The landlords now require 450 DKK to walk on the path. A guy is waiting in his car all day in front of the sign to...

Fish an Chips
Fast food restaurant
👍👍 This place was absolutely amazing! Not only you will have really tasty fish and chips, but you will also have an interesting conversation with the owner. He told me about his life and about Faroese people and gave me some great tips on where to go (eat) next. Surprise, it is his brother's food truck...

Slave Cliff (Lake Above the Ocean)
Hiking area
🫤 Beautiful hike, the landscapes and views are amazing. The path is ok
But 200kr (25 euros) per person is a scam. They could at least offer water or some tea
The toilets at the hike departure were clean

Smiðjan
Restaurant
🫤 Fast food place on Vágar. But fast is only the term for the food and not for the pace the food is being made ready. Lacks in the overall experience mainly because of the less-welcoming staff, the fact that we waited for our food (fried fish and a pizza) for 25‘ and some some tables werent cleaned th...

Miðvágurt to Bøsdalafossur Trail Head
Hiking area
😠 Beautiful and yet totally overpriced hiking. 200DKK entry fee is a rip-off. Supposedly the fee is to build facilities, which are not builded yet... (am I paying for the future visitors? Thanks!), and to preserve nature. If you want to really preserve nature you could close the path or open some limi...

Trælanípan Trail
Hiking area
😠 I'm so sorry to see such a greed in Faroes. 26 euros per person for walking a path to see nature's beauty is madness! If the fee is to preserve the paths then the path should be golden! And it wasn't even a well-preserved! This practice of ripping off travelers is a disgrace and I've seen it in m...

Faeroes
Island
😠 The place of the cruelty, there you will see the killing of Pilot Whales or Puffins just for fun and tradition. All with the help of Danish Navy and Police.
