Island Day-Trip

Nólsoy Village
We took the ferry from Tórshavn and spent an entire day on this pleasant island. We tried to take the signature hike to the lighthouse on the island's south side, but didn't quite make it. Still, we had a very nice time strolling around the village and the island's more accessible north side.

Hiking and Walking

Exploring the island and taking in the views is definitely a nice way to pass the time. Here, we are looking back at Tórshavn and pondering what a difference a 20-minute boat ride makes.

The Village

When you're tired of hiking, pass the remaining time wandering the streets and alleys of Nólsoy village. On this page, I'll outline a few of the walks, as well as other diversions and facilities on the island. Enjoy!

 I think I want to do that five-hour hike you suggested going to the lighthouse! And that's a nice pic of the sheep on the road
