Faroe Islands is an autonomous archipelago in the North Atlantic, which belongs to Denmark. The 18 islands and various skerries are of volcanic origin and the individual charm of the small villages enchants every visitor. Flocks of gulls, puffins, sandpipers and terns can be seen on the Faroe Islands. All this is a remarkable landing place for people who draw strength from solitude and seclusion.
