This new thoroughly updated 5th edition of Bradt's Faroe Islands remains the only
English-language guide to this isolated unspoiled archipelago home to Torshavn the world's
smallest capital and where there are twice as many sheep as people. Bradt's Faroe Islands
offers detailed information about all 18 islands and the breathtaking landscapes which never
fail to inspire visitors from the highest sea cliffs in Europe at Enniberg on the island of
Vidoy to the dramatic seascapes at Akraberg the southernmost point of the Faroes. There's
hands-on information about where to stay and eat how to get around - be it by local ferry
helicopter or your own hire car - and what to see and do. Also included are details of how to
reach even the remotest corners by bus using a travel card the latest information on falling
seabird numbers in the North Atlantic and details of where to go sea angling rappelling and

needed for a successful trip. Within the islands themselves Bradt's Faroe Islands is
recognised as the definitive source of information about the Faroes in the English language -
and is widely respected as such. Whether you're visiting for the amazing birdlife to walk some
of Europe's least-known hiking trails or simply to sample real village life among the houses
painted in a melee of reds yellows and blues Bradt's Faroe Islands is the perfect companion.
