A tunnel leads from the main island of Streymoy to the south to the island of Sandoy and is home to a series of works of art that take you through the history of the islands, with many motifs dating back to the Viking era. We continue south-east on Sandoy to Skálavik, a small village that is a good starting point for hikes and bike tours.
Our excursions on Sandoy lead to the small towns on the island in their sheltered bays - Dalur in the south of the island and Skopun in the north, where you can admire the largest mailbox in the world, for example. All paths on the small southern island lead through the town of Sandur in the center, where there is another special feature to see - a large stone wrapped in rope that tells the story of a witch as you walk around it. The route continues to Søltuvik along a very beautiful single-lane road that leads to a parking lot. A path along the coast starts here with spectacular views, including a striking coastal formation dominated by a large rock needle that protrudes from the sea.
Further south, narrow roads lead to the towns of Húsavik and Dalur, where streams lined with buttercups make the landscape seem like a fairy tale, and further to the grass-roofed houses for which the Faroe Islands are known.
