A great day out with Tummas! A comfortable ride and an easy hike, so you get to actually enjoy your surroundings. The views are breathtaking and if you are as lucky as I was with the weather, you will take stunning pictures. Tummas is an excellent guide, knowledgeable, attentive, flexible and very pleasant to be with. I highly recommend both the tour and Tummas. Don’t miss this one!

This is a great starter walk or hike before you get into the tougher ones. Aside from the amazing scenery, you also get to learn more about the Faroese culture and technology, which can sometimes be misrepresented and misunderstood in the west.
