    I spent exactly one week on the Faroe Islands working together with the local tourism board to show you an interesting mix of the best things to do in the faroe islands from outdoor adventures, iconic panoramas and food experiences to one of the largest festivals in the country named „G! Festival“.
    Beside checking out the local attractions I got the chance to truly live like a local - I stayed with a local family for a few days, got invited by farmers for dinner and went hiking with one of the most famous outdoor adventurers.
    Together with travel blogger Amanda Williams I rented a car and went on a road trip to the most popular instagram hot spots, got to do sea kayaking and said hi to Puffins on Mykines island. Visiting the annual G! festival was the perfect finish to a memorable trip…topping it off with a helicopter flight. What a ride!
    This trip was executed within 7 days - following I list all the places I visited & Things to do in the Faroe Islands:
    - Traelanipa (hiking with Reika Adventures)
    - Torshavn
    - Gasadalur & Mulafossur
    - Hoyvik (sea kayaking with NEX)
    - Mykines (Puffins & Lighthouse hike)
    - Tjornuvik
    - Gjógv
    - Vidareidi & Cape Enniberg
    - Gota
    - G! Festival
    - Helicopter flight with Atlantic Airways
    - About my Cooperation with Visit Faroe Islands -
    I got invited by Visit Faroe Islands to produce this video showcasing my travel experience. I was free to create my very own itinerary with all the freedom needed. Nevertheless all opinions, recommendations and views are my own.

    Holy.... Steve, these islands are absolutely stunning! I may not visit them in the next year, but now it's absolutely on my list. The landscape is just unreal. It's different. It's not alpine like Patagonia and the European Alps. The unique blend of green and cliffs next to the sea are mesmerizing. Even as much as you've seen of the world, this must have been a real treat!

    • @BackPackerSteve
      @BackPackerSteve  7 лет назад +4

      It is totally like that - a very unique place with an incredible landscape...and the people are so welcoming and friendly (at least in my experience) which is even more surprising if you see the weather conditions they have to deal with every day. I want to go back soon as there are so many cool places I haven't seen / hiked to yet ;)

      Hello Raúl!! Yes, the Faroe Islands are magnificent and a place to go soon!! But, I'm afraid you're completely wrong: Patagonia, in Argentina, my country, it's not at all "Alpine"!!!!! It's "Andean" and it has a unique landscaspe, a mixture of mountains over 6.000 m, glaciars (including the only one that advances, 80 m high), petrified woods, lakes and fast-flowing rivers, falls, deserted steppes, volcanos, dinosaur fossils, salt flats, and deep green valleys, the Valdivian Jungle, flamingoes, whales, orcas, dolphins, walruses, penguins, maras, guanacos, pumas, more than 232 species of birds, plus sheep as cute as those from the Faroes, etc, etc!!! Perhaps you have never been in our beloved and definitively not Alpine-like Patagonia? If not, I'm inviting you to visit my land whenever you want. Love from the South, Lil

    That's it??? How could you have left out the annual killing of the whales--you know, where they drag them into the shallows and fill the water with that pretty red color? Surely, there must have been room/time to show that lovely spectacle. I heard it is a real tourist attraction. I hear the best way to go, is first see the slaughter, then go straight to a rock concert--gets you in the mood. Years and years later, you can show the photos and all those tranquil memories--what a serene place.

    Wow breath taking landscape, it's really nice on film but in person.
    What's the summer heatwave temperatures get to about 45 dgr F ?
    I dont know what the celcius conversion would be?
    You talk about hiking, and boats, and concerts with hottubs, and helicopter rides, mt climbing.
    What no paragliding, hang gliding?
    I could see someone powered hang gliding over the terrain, I dont think you would get a good lift for doing that without a motor on the glider.
    So jumping off a cliff with a hang glider might not be a good idea.
    I've only done it once, and if you have no lift you fall like a rock unless you can get the kite to catch some air.

      Yes I got invited by Visit Faroe Islands but was totally free to set up my own itinerary and had a rental car to explore on my own. Visit Faroe Islands invited me for the G Festival but I wanted to see also the nature and as much of the islands as possible so we extended my stay and got to work with local guides.
      I'm always transparent about my cooperations and only work with Partners who accept my terms and align with my travel style and audience. My videos are totally free to watch for everyone - video productions like this wouldn't be possible in the long run without external support.

    WOW! Amazing video! You remind me of my unforgettable trip to Faroe Islands in June! But so pity I don't have enough time to go to Vidareidi. I hope next time I could make it there! Is it a must to hire a guide to hiking to Enniberg? And how long it takes to up and down? Is it possible to climb to the mid pard of the mountain by myself if I just wanna have a higher view of Vidareidi? That would be a lot of help. Thx Steve!:)

    • @BackPackerSteve
      @BackPackerSteve  7 лет назад

      Hey Frank - you can do it without a guide but as I was there during a foggy time I really appreciated the help (it would have been difficult to navigate as you could barely see..but it was clear on the way back) but also the info I got. The hike up to the mountain before crossing over to Enniberg is easily doable as the path is clearly visible.

      BackPacker Steve Thx for reply Steve! How long does it take to hike up and down? And if I hire a guide how much does it cost usually?:)

      You should factor in about 4-5h for getting up to Enniberg, enjoying it and getting back down...but it all depends on weather and your fitness level.
      Regarding guides you are looking at more or less 160€ per day, depending on the activity - e.g. if you are a party of 4 this splits into about 40€ p.P.
