6The Faroe Islands

While technically part of Denmark, the Faroe Islands feel like a world away. This archipelago of 18 volcanic islands sits in the North Atlantic, halfway between Iceland and Norway.

Known for its dramatic landscapes, rolling green cliffs, and cascading waterfalls, the Faroe Islands offer a rugged beauty that few places can rival. Visit the island of Mykines to see puffins up close, hike around the Múlafossur waterfall, or sail through the rocky sea stacks. The Faroe Islands are perfect for those who love nature and tranquility.
