  • Being an archipelago in the North Atlantic the weather can be hard to call.

    In April the winter still hasn’t quite let go and snow can be common. The mountains will likely have snowy caps but expect rain showers rather than snow on the Heaths.

    Average daytime temperature on the Heaths will usually stay above 0°C but can reach 10-12°C.

    Up in the mountains it can be below 0°C so layers will be essential.

    The wind is a near permanent feature so windproof layers will also be a must.

  • A kit list will be provided along with your trip confirmation.

  • The Faroe Islands are very safe, with one of the lowest crime rates in the world. The health risks involved in travelling the Faroe Islands are minimal. All tap water on the islands is potable and fresh.

    The landscape can be untamed, and the weather can change instantly, with fog, wind or rain. We will have covered action plans for any eventuality within reason and have daily evening debriefs on conditions as well as contingency plans.

  • There are two currencies of equal value in the Faroe Islands: the Faroese Króna and the Danish Krone. Danish notes are equally acceptable as Faroese notes throughout the country.

    Most places accept credit cards however most DO NOT accept American Express.

  • We strongly recommend obtaining both travel & medical insurance prior to joining our trips. If you choose not to, you acknowledge and accept our Terms and Conditions
