Spend some time in the great outdoors in the company of an epic sunset. Get acquainted with the untouched nature as you have mountains in all directions whilst being far away from the crowds.

This afternoon sunset tour samples the best of South Streymoy Island. You will see the landscapes where the locals have trekked for centuries. Locals call this tour 'Fyri Vestan' and it has been and is the most popular hike for Faroe Islanders. Still very unknown by travellers, this hike will get you to places where very few if any other travellers are.

Your local tour guide will pick you up in Tórshavn. After a 15 minutes drive, you will start hiking through the untouched valley Mannafelsdalur. From there you will go on a journey that is often referred to as Faroe Islands in miniature.

Soon you will see the two white domes on top of Mount Sornfelli and you will have an amazing panoramic view of the Troll Woman's Finger or Trøllkonufingur and Vagar Island. When you stand in these landscapes, it feels like you are in a scene in Lord of the Rings. Weather permitting, you will have the chance to see golden ambience from the skies as the sun pushes its way through the clouds. 

This tour offers you otherworldly waterfalls, beautiful valleys, and dramatic coastal cliffs. The tour guide will also make sure that you explore some of the most hidden spots in South Streymoy Island. This sunset hike is the perfect tour for those looking for the finest natural marvels in the Faroe Islands.

You will have endless photo opportunities so make sure to expose your camera to some of Faroe Island's most undiscovered sights. Your experienced tour guide will bring you to the best spots.

Now, you will hike down to the Norðradalur valley. Soak in the beautiful view of Koltur Island and Hestur Island. When you reach Norðradalur, you will have some refreshments before heading back to Tórshavn. 

Your tour guide has a deep passion for nature and will secure you the best views along the hike. Now, don't hesitate to book. Check availability by choosing a date.

    Excellent hike tour. You get to picked up by your accommodation by the guide and his wife. Then you ride to the area and the hike starts. The area and it surroundings are beautiful just like you almost on another planet. You get to see a lot of out of this beautiful nature surroundings in a area not many people come. So that’s makes it extra special. In the end you get picked up again to get to a restaurant called Kafé Kaspar where you get a delicious dinner. This is included in the tour and that was great to end the tour, because believe you get really hungry after it 😉

    Thank you, Tummas !

    Thank you to Tummas for organising our hike today! Our guides Óðin and Randi were terrific companions and taught us a lot about Faroese nature and culture. Despite a little rain, we were led on a route that was a good match for our schedule and fitness levels. We would heartily recommend a similar trip to anyone who wants to see Faroese landscape up close and safely.

    We had a great trip with nice weather and a good Guide. It was a perfect day ashore. Coming in with a cruise ship I really recommend this tour. Perfectly organized and a good change away from the masses.

    A fantastic hike through marvellous and unspoiled nature

    I never felt insecure in the mountains, even though I’m afraid of heights
