Put on your hiking boots and get ready for an unforgettable adventure to Kalsoy Island and the famous Kallur Lighthouse. This evening tour will get you to one of the most sought after attractions in the Faroe Islands when the morning and afternoon crowds have left the island and while it is still bright as the day (thank you, bright summer months!).
This tour is made with a maximum of 4 travellers. That is a very unique way to explore the otherwise crowded Kalsoy Island.
Led by a local farmer and Kalsoy Island tour guide, this trip starts when you arrive at the ferry harbour in the fishing town Klaksvík. This tour will take advantage of the bright and peaceful evenings on the remarkable Kalsoy Island.
Now, your farmer guide will join you on a 20 minutes ferry ride from Klaksvík on Borðoy Island to Kalsoy Island. The ferry crossing is a memorable experience in its own right. Enjoy the towering mountains and epic fjord network surrounding Kalsoy Island.
When you reach this island, your guide will drive you through several mountain tunnels. Now, your farmer tour guide will take you to the northernmost village on Kalsoy Island. In a deep valley, you will find the village Trøllanes from where your epic hike towards Kallur Lighthouse starts. You only need some basic hiking skills in order to complete the walk into the wilderness and the remarkably located Kallur Lighthouse.
Along the way you will also stop by the village Mikladalur on Kalsoy Island. You will experience the statue Kópakonan which translates into the Seal Lady. Your guide will tell you about the legend linked to the statue. You will get a local beer and some local tasting when in Mikladaur. Enjoy small samples of local food in the most scenic surroundings! This is included in the tour.
For those who want something extra, make sure to add some local cheese made in Mikladalur and good white wine to the cart during the booking process. The cheese and white wine add-on is recommendable. At the end of the tour, you will take the ferry back to Klaksvík at 10:35 PM.
Visiting Kalsoy Island is an once-in-a-liftetime experience where you get the most epic mountain views known by many but visited by only few. Do not let this fantastic opportunity pass you by. Check availability by choosing a date.

FAQ
The ferry schedule says it doesn't open the 22:35pm ferry back unless by direct request. Is there a way once we book the tour, that that ferry could be opened up for us?
Your guide lives on Kalsoy Island and will take care of the ferry booking.
