Toftavatn Travel Guide

Lake Toftavatn is a freshwater lake in the unbelievable Faroe Islands. It lies next to the town Runavík on Eysturoy Island. This is the fourth largest lake in the Faroe Islands with a surface area of 0,5 square kilometres.

Toftavatn will get your attention when heading towards the small villages Æðuvík and Rituvík. These villages are the most southernly settlements on Eysturoy Island.

Go for a stroll around the lake and get peace of mind. The whole area has tranquility to it. Park your car where NSÍ Football Club is located and you are only minutes from the lake.

You will find a rich birdlife in the area. The mellow landscapes differ from the rugged elements found so many other places around the archipelago.
