Voted National Geographic’s “Most Desirable Island Destination”, the Faroes are one of Europe’s last natural wildernesses. Dramatic and serene 600m high sea-cliffs give way to lush rolling interiors -- perfect for walkers, painters, photographers, and those looking for a totally different holiday experience. Go wild.
