Faroe Islands with Kids | An Adventure Family Guide

The Faroe Islands isolated from civilization, yet easily accessible are home to some of the most unique landscape we’ve ever witnessed. The Faroes are an archipelago of 18 islands found in the North Atlantic Ocean. Nestled in between Iceland and Norway, these islands are unprotected from the intense Atlantic winds. You may recognize the jagged, vibrant green cliffs from photos or even seen Faroe Islands Salmon on a dinner menu. Although known for marine life and wool, the scenic peacefulness is what caught our attention.

With a temperamental climate and stunning cliffsides, some may wonder, is this a family-friendly destination? We think visiting the Faroe Islands with kids is a wonderful family escape from the hustle and bustle of every day life. For those seeking an outdoor escape, this trip is absolutely worth it. Read on for our full 8 day itinerary and guide to the Faroes, as well as advice on traveling with kids.

How to Get to the Faroe Islands

The Faroe Islands, albeit off the grid, are not as difficult to reach as one may think. They are an easy puddle jumper from a few major European cities. We took a 2.5 hour flight out of Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris to Vágar (Faroe Islands international airport). Below are the major cities that fly directly to the Faroes with Atlantic Airways. Keep in mind, a majority of these routes are only accessible in the summer months. These direct route options help make visiting the Faroe Islands with kids simpler.

Do you Need a Car in the Faroe Islands with Kids?

You do not NEED a car in the Faroe Islands. However, it would be very challenging to explore as much as possible without one. Yes it is an added expense, but you have the freedom to get around freely. There were a few days that we had lots of fog and tried to go back to complete the hike. We were able to drive to another town, explore a little bit, and then try again later. I think this would be difficult to accomplish when relying solely on public transport. Also, if you’re traveling with a family, renting a car will save you a lot of time and added stress. Ultimately, traveling to the Faroe Islands with kids is significantly easier if you have a car.

Transportation in the Faroe Islands

In the Faroes, the main modes of public transport are helicopter, bus and ferry. The only one we used was the Mykines ferry from Sorvagur. Unfortunately, we decided not to attempt the 2 hour ferry ride to Suduroy after a bad experience with the Mykines one. Visit local website here here to book your Faroe Islands ferry rides in advance as they book quickly in the summer! We also highly recommend a helicopter ride if you can figure out how to make it work. They are extremely affordable and a fun way to view the islands from above. This mode of transport is mostly for locals and emergencies, so you can only book one way. Also, they can be cancelled if the weather is not cooperating, which is frequent. A couple of families had their Mykines helicopter ride cancelled due to high winds and had to take the ferry at a later time. This seemed to be very common, so plan accordingly.

Pro Tip: We DO NOT recommend proceeding with the Mykines ferry if the seas look rough. This ride was not for the faint-hearted. It took almost an hour in choppy waters. Poor Maya got sick and we were stuck in the bottom of the boat with other passengers. Getting rocked for that long was not fun on such a small boat. The ride home wasn’t nearly as bad. Thankfully, the sun was out and so it made for a more enjoyable journey. Other routes such as Suduroy have larger ships, so that may be more pleasant. If the fjord has white caps and you don’t handle rough waters well, reschedule!

How Long to Visit the Faroe Islands

After much discussion, I think one week is plenty of time to explore most of what the Faroe Islands has to offer. One week gives you an enough of a buffer to plan for bad weather and you can visit multiple islands. We originally had planned on 10 days, which would have been nice to include a few more destinations, but 8 days was perfect. With 18 islands, there’s plenty to choose from. I recommend making a list of all of the hikes and lookouts that you are interested in visiting. Make a Google Maps layout (see ours here) and organize by region. Then, you can decide where you want to go and group by location and day.

Where to Stay

The Faroe Islands was one of the most successful Airbnb experiences we’ve ever had. After reading Conde Nast’s raving article on Hariett’s farm stay in Æðuvik, I knew I had to book this home immediately. The second home was an adorable cottage in Gasadalur near the famous Mulafossur Waterfall. Both Airbnb’s were spectacular, aesthetically pleasing, and had wonderful hosts.

We loved being able to stay in different regions of the Faroe Islands and obtaining a new experience. Both homes were vastly different, yet had beautiful surroundings and animals roaming all around. Most importantly, they offered a unique way to experience the Faroe Islands with kids. There’s nothing more family friendly than being surrounded by animals and land.

Æðuvik

I could go on and on about our Airbnb stay on Harriet’s farm. This was truly one of the most unique rental experiences we’ve ever had. From waking up each morning to the ocean and animals to the modern design of the home, each detail was handcrafted. The family lived next door and was readily available, yet not intrusive. Harriet, her husband John, and daughter were friendly and hospitable. They even let Maya and Luna play with their daughter’s toys. The college student who was living with their family and working on the farm was also very kind.

The cottage itself was gorgeous and highly modern with Scandinavian design and utilities. Maya freaked out when she saw the upstairs loft. Sadly, she was not allowed to sleep up there for obvious reasons (aka steep stairs). However, she enjoyed her new playroom the first night :). Our favorite parts of the cottage were the incredible view and that it was walking distance to stunning views of the valley and Mulafossur waterfall. The girls loved watching the animals roam around the pasture each day. We were completely immersed in Mother Nature!

We thought it was amazing that the entire village was multigenerational and the land was owned by Harriet. She’s an incredibly impressive entrepreneur! The decor in the home was mostly photographs of the farm animals, which was adorable! More than anything, we enjoyed our daily visits from Zoe the cat and greeting the pet ram, Elias. These were special moments that we will never forget. Maya and Luna still bring up Zoe the cat to this day!

Pros & Cons

Two things that we loved were that the home had a bath tub (nice for toddler bedtime routine) and a mini projector for the ceiling that connected to our phone. We had so much fun doing movie night in the loft after a long day of hiking. The only negative was that the loft stairs are extremely steep and slippery. With two toddlers, this made us a little uneasy at night. We knew this ahead of time, so by no means is this the host’s problem, but please be aware. Each night we placed a bench and one of our large suitcases to block the stairs. Due to illness, Maya ended up sleeping with us most nights instead of the cute alcove bed, so this made us feel a bit more comfortable. The hosts were also accomodating enough to put a baby cot upstairs for Luna.

Other than the steep staircase, this home is the ultimate family rental. With a baby and/or older child, I would not be concerned at all. There’s just so much to offer, including a playground behind the house! The location was about 20 minutes from the capital of Torshavn. We never drove more than an hour to any hike from either Airbnb location. Both homes were evenly spaced out amongst the islands in terms of getting around to nearby hikes.

Gasadalur

Our very first Airbnb was a beautifully designed wooden cottage near the Mulafossur Waterfall in the quiant town of Gasadalur. Home to about ten locals, this was one of the smallest villages we have ever visited. Despite its size, we found the location to be perfect for travel on the island of Vagar. Many popular attractions and hikes can be found on this island, as well as the international airport. We were never more than 20 minutes from our planned destinations here.

Our host, Jakup, was very gracious and even stopped by after check-in to make sure we were settled in and didn’t need anything. His knowledge on the land and home was much appreciated and you could tell that he was very passionate about his work.

What to Pack

The best word to describe weather in the Faroe Islands is: dynamic. The summertime brings mild temperatures with a mixed climate. You can expect fluctuating temps and experience each season in one day! Due to the unprotected land, the winds can be extreme. You’ll notice there’s hardly any trees on the islands.

I thought the lack of trees was due to the high winds originally. But to our surprise, our host Jakup said that it’s because there’s so many sheep, and they eat any type of tree that tries to grow.

Elevation on the mountain tops brings significantly cooler weather, fog, and sometimes snow. We were lucky with the weather and only experience rain one day. There were a couple foggy, cloudy days, but basically consistently in the 50s Fahrenheit. Honestly, our worst day of weather was the day of the Mykines ferry and puffin tour. This was unfortunate, but intriguing to witness the temperamental climate of the Faroes. This being said, layers are key. Faroese are known for their wool and now we know why!

Here is a list of essential items to pack for you trip to the Faroe Islands with kids:

• Fleece sweater
• Windbreaker (combo rain jacket is best)
• Base layers (merino wool – I sadly could not find Faroese merino base layers there)
• Wool socks
• Active wear (shirts and pants)
• Sweaters
• Jeans/leggings
• Hiking boots
• Dress up boots/sneakers

Most Family-Friendly Activities

Almost anything you do in the Faroe Islands with kids is family friendly. From hiking to animal watching, there’s plenty to do on these quiet islands. Below are some of our favorite memories with our girls in the Faroe Islands and some we didn’t get to encounter:

• Easy hikes and scenic walks
• Animal watching
• Island hopping by ferry
• Helicopter rides
• Fishing
• Unique playgrounds
• Farm Stay
• Heimablídni translates to “home hospitality” (lunch or dinner with a local family)
• Faroese Premiere League Football Match

All of the above are wonderful activities for families with young or older children. When visiting the Faroe Islands with kids, pick a couple of excursions and then roam the rest of the island. The Faroes are expensive and the less tours, the more budget-friendly your trip will be. If it’s in your budget, there’s some pretty awesome tours on Visit Faroe Islands and Guide to Faroe Islands. You can even filter on later site what time of the year you’ll be traveling.

Our Favorite Activity

In our opinion, the best thing to do in the Faroe Islands with kids is truly just to drive and roam around. Every road is so incredibly scenic and filled with wildlife. There are hikes sporadically around the island. To be honest, you could make a trail out of almost any region. We recommend planning one hike/excursion a day and leave the rest of the day for wandering.

Our Favorite Hike

The best hike in the Faroe Islands with kids (in our opinion) was Slave Cliff (Lake Sorvágsvatn/ Trælanípa). The hike itself was not long or challenging and still provided incredible views at the end. We loved that there was many safe, flat terrain parts that the girls could walk on. Maya and Luna enjoyed stopping at the small waterfalls to sip the fresh water and greet the sheep along the way.

The end of the hike has much steeper cliffs and I would recommend keeping littles nearby. I kept Luna in the baby carrier the entire time. Maya was good about listening and staying nearby when told. Of course, we did our best to stay away from the edge of the cliffs.

Overall, the hike was mild in intensity and doable for all age ranges. I’d recommend arriving to the car park early, as this is probably one of the most popular hikes in the Faroe Islands. Be sure to grab the most delicious, warm chocolate croissants at the check-in office. Also, don’t forget to bring money for the hiking fee (200 DKK per adult). They accept cash or card and have snacks, drinks, and souvenirs in the shop.

8 Day Itinerary

Pro Tip: We DO NOT recommend proceeding with the Mykines ferry if there are choppy. This ride was not for the faint-hearted. The ride was almost an hour of rough seas. Poor Maya got sick and we were stuck in the bottom of the boat with other passengers. Getting rocked for that long was not fun on such a small boat. The ride home wasn’t nearly as bad and the sun was out, so it made for a better journey. Other routes such as Suduroy have larger ferries, so that may be more pleasant. If the fjord has white caps and you don’t handle rough waters well, reschedule!

Day 1

• Check in to Mulafossur Cottages
• Explore Mulafossur Waterfall & Gásadalur

The first day of travel (IMO) is always a wash. If you are traveling from far (or just in general as a family), you are probably pretty beat by the time you arrive to your accommodations. That being said, we try not to plan much on our arrival day. This day consisted of checking in to our Airbnb accommodations and exploring the village. Despite our exhaustion, we bundled up and roamed around the adorable village of Gásadalur. This is where we spent the first two days of our time in the island of Vagar. We enjoyed meeting the horses, strolling around the village, capturing some incredible drone shots, and admiring the Mulafossur Waterfall.

Mulafossur Cottages

The Mulafossur cottages were the highlight of this region. The main reason we stayed in this village was due to this incredible Airbnb. Albeit the town of Gásadalur having one cafe with stranger hours, this is absolutely worth adding to your itinerary. If you’re visiting the Faroe Islands with Kids (or even solo), these cottages are so unique and the ultimate relaxing place to call home at the end of the day. Maya and Luna were ecstatic when they walked in to our cottage. Be wary of the loft with very steep steps. I was not concerned about Maya trying to climb up at nighttime and she is a good listener, but this may not be ideal for your family. However, you know your own children and this is an awesome rental property if you think it is safe for your young kiddos!

Mulafossur Waterfall & The Postman’s Trail

Gásadalur is an extremely, tiny village with a population of about 13 people. Considering its size, there is not a ton to do in this area. The most popular attraction is the Mulafossur waterfall and the Postman’s trail that leads up to it. Unfortunately, we chickened out of the Postman’s trail hike, which probably was not the most suited for a family with small children. The steep trail leading down the mountain to the Mulafossur waterfall made us a bit nervous. I think the trail is doable with children who are experienced hikers during good weather. This trail can be dangerous when slippery and in snowy conditions, so plan accordingly.

“Unfortunately, we chickened out of the Postman’s trail hike, which probably was not the most suited for a family with small children.”

Day 2

• Hike Slave Cliff (Lake Above the Ocean) – Trælanípa and Lake Sørvágsvatn
• Lunch at Cafe Pollastova
• Witches Finger Trail – Trøllkonufingur

Out of the entire week, Day 2 was probably our favorite day on the itinerary. Considering we had incredible weather, I think this also played a key role. As stated earlier, Slave Cliff was the best hike we did during our time in the Faroes. Most of the day was spent completing this short hike, yet we really took the time to explore the coastline here and enjoy the perfect sunny weather. This was one of only two sunny days, so take advantage of the bursts of good hiking weather and clear skies. We did our best to make our top hikes a priority during the clearest days.

Trælanípa and Lake Sørvágsvatn

Trælanípa is understandably one of the most popular day hikes in all of the Faroe Islands (read more on the fascinating history and meaning behind the name Slave Cliff here). Not only is the optical illusion of the lake above the ocean an incredible sight to see, but the hike itself is not challenging. If visiting the Faroe Islands with kids, this is a MUST do. Majority of the trail is a relatively flat and easy for little ones to tackle. We still brought hiking carriers, because our girls tire out quickly. Luna, at one years old, did not hike much obviously. However, it was nice to safely let her roam on the trail from time to time. Towards the end of the hike, I kept her safe in her carrier as we got pretty close to the cliff’s edge.

Lunch at Restaurant Cafe Pollastova

Not that there were many options, but our favorite cafe on Vagar was the Cafe Pollastova in Sørvágur (the largest downtown region on the island). This was the best coffee we had on the island and had a solid menu for all three meals of the day. Their opening hours are short from 10:00 to 17:00 Monday through Friday. I recommend making dinner reservations to ensure you have a spot as there were maybe 10 tables. Also, you will find a grocery store across the street with the cutest kids shopping carts 🙂 We stocked up on light food and snacks items for the week.

Trøllkonufingur (Witches Finger)

Trøllkonufingur is another famous landmark in the Faroe Islands. Unfortunately, we were exhausted after spending half the day at Trælanipa and did not make the effort to drive back to see witches finger. We did have a nice view of it from the start of the trail and felt as though it wasn’t worth tiring out the girls any more to see. It would be an awesome drone shot to get if you can make the time for it!

Day 3

• Breakfast in Sørvágur
• My kinds Puffins Tour
• Check in to Farm Stay

The Mykines Puffin tour was high up on my bucket list when visiting the Faroe Islands with kids. I envisioned the girls jumping with joy seeing the cute little penguin-like birds. However, this tour could not have been more disappointing.

After battling a one hour choppy boat ride filled with seasickness and frustration, we arrived to the beautiful island of Mykines. The island itself was stunning and the locals were interesting and full of fun facts. If it wasn’t for the poor travel experience, this would have been a nice and relaxing day.

Following our not so great experience visiting Mykines, we were welcomed into our new home for the next 3 nights at Hanusartova. This made our day because it was the most amazing Airbnb we’ve ever stayed. The moment we parked the car, we were greeted by sweet Elias their pet ram (yes, I know) and Zoe the cat. Sheep and chickens roamed all around our home. Harriet even had the fridge stocked with milk, yogurt, beets, and drinks for the kids. On top of that, there was homemade bread rolls, fresh eggs and coffee. This place had it all! One of our favorite moments was using their projector to watch a movie in the loft on the ceiling. What a neat idea for a rental! Absolutely could not recommend this place enough! Oh and there was a playground behind the house if you need more activities for the kids. 

“Unfortunately, we chickened out of the Postman’s trail hike, which probably was not the most suited for a family with small children.”

Day 4

• Hvíthamar Viewpoint Hike
• Explore Gjógv
• Torshavn for dinner

The fourth day was a lot of fun for our family. We attempted to hike to the Hvíthamar viewpoint hike on the island of Esturoy, but the fog was so thick that we couldn’t complete it. Instead, we decided to wander around the town of Gjógv (a 5 minute drive).

Although this was not originally on our itinerary, we thoroughly enjoyed it. Gjógv is a small, quaint village with a population of about 24 people. The highlight of this adorable coastal town was a cafe overlooking the gorge. On a chilly day, the fresh waffles and hot chocolate will warm your soul 😊 Be sure to stop by here for a little indulgence!

There’s not much to do but wander around the town and enjoy the scenery. However, this is a perfect addition to your Faroe Islands with kids itinerary. I kind of regret not walking the entire Gjógv trailhead, but we had a good time roaming around with our hot chocolate and wanted to attempt Hvíthamar hike again.

As expected, the fog had not cleared up for the Hvíthamar trail, so we headed back to Torshavn. Be sure to stop by Rose’s Restaurant & Cafe and try to make reservations for a sit down meal. They were very busy with only a few tables when we stopped by. However, they have a beautiful view of the surrounding fjord and a solid menu. Next, head back into Torshavn to explore town!

Torshavn

To our surprise, Torshavn was actually an incredible city. Albeit small, there was so much more to see and do compared to the tiny villages we had visited. I recommend making this a home base if you are interested in staying somewhere remote or are using public transportation only.

By far our favorite stop in Torshavn for coffee (finally good lattes) and snacks was Paname Cafe. We loved that it was attached to a book store with plenty to keep the kids entertained while we waited for our order. You can find the cutest toys here too!

Torshavn Gems:

• Kristina Christiansen Restaurant
• Paname Cafeé
• Brell Café

Didn’t try but highly recommended:

• ROKS (Michelin star) $$$$
• Áarstova $$$
• Ræst (Michelin star) $$$$
• Barbara Fish House $$$

Day 5

• Fossa Waterfall
• Tjørnuvik
• Suppugarðurin (ramen) for dinner in Torshavn

Day 5 was a relaxing, laid back day with a little more driving than normal. We didn’t have the clearest skies, but it was nice enough weather to do some light walks. First, we drove to Fossa waterfall to explore and get some nice drone shots. Afterwards, we headed to the popular surf town of Tjørnuvik. Maya enjoyed roaming around the Fossa waterfall and proved her hiking skills are beginning to develop.

Fossa Waterfall

When visiting Fossa waterfall, you can either hike a little over 1 km to the top ledge or park at the bottom and climb up the side. Honestly, by the time we got there, we just followed the cars and didn’t do the full hike. I regret not doing it, because it looks so much more dramatic from up top.

Tip: do full Fossa Waterfall hike. The entrance point is different from base of waterfall. See location in map below.

Tjørnuvik

In Tjørnuvik, about a 25 minute drive from Fossa, we chose to stroll around the town and fjord instead of completing the 4 mile hike to Saksun beach. That long of a trek with toddlers in not-so-great weather just didn’t seem worth it. If you’re visiting the Faroe Islands with kids, choose your battles with the weather. Some hikes may just not be worth the discomfort or potential danger. If you have nice weather, I highly recommend as both towns are very beautiful and it’s one of the top ranked hikes in the Faroes.

We stopped in Torshavn for our nightly dinner and stumbled upon a delicious ramen stop, Suppugarðurin. I highly recommend stopping by after your day of exploring to warm up with a bowl of ramen 😋

Day 6

• Klakkur hike
• Klaksvik for lunch
• Faroese Premiere League match

Our second favorite day of our time in the Faroes was visiting the island of Børdoy completing the Klakkur hike. The town of Klaksvik is relatively big being the second largest town in the islands. I recommend a morning hike to Klakkur and following with lunch in town. We decided to add checking out a Faroese soccer match to our schedule. We enjoyed this very much and recommend attending one if time permits. There is actually a huge soccer fanbase!

Klakkur Hike

• 1.7 mi out-and-back
• 1-2 hrs round trip

The Klakkur hike was one of my favorite days. The panoramic views from the top were just stunning and you truly cannot appreciate it unless you climb all the way. The best hikes we’ve complete have panoramic views with water and mountain tops. I just feel like you cannot beat this type of scenery! This is a must do when visiting Faroe Islands with kids.

The climb to the top was not very long or challenging. I would call it a moderate hike in intensity. The hike took us about 3 hours round trip, including the time it took parking in the wrong spot twice (lol) and getting some shots. AllTrails says it is about 1 hour round trip, but I feel like ours was closer to 1.5 hours from the proper trailhead. My suggestion would be to drive until you can’t anymore because the trailhead on Google was much further away from the actual start. When doing a vertical ascent carrying two little ones, an extra 20 minutes of hiking is unnecessary. Save your energy and park as close as possible. Overall, 10/10 hiking experience! Just be aware of slippery terrain and go around to dry spots.

Klaksvik

The town of Klaksvik is a decent size with quite a bit to offer compared to other Faroese town. It felt more like a small city, than a village. If you plan to do the Klakkur hike, definitely check out Klaksvik and grab a bite at Friða Kaffihus. It’s a modern coffee shop with cocktail and a nice lunch menu. There’s a courtyard area outside where Maya and Luna made friends with a local girl. It was amazing to see how they interacted despite the language barrier. We’re not going to lie, this was our first positive interaction with the Faroese. Sadly, many of the locals we had met did not feel overly warm.

Faroese Premier League

The most unique experience we had in the Faroe Islands was attending a Faroese Premier League soccer (football) match. We decided to go to the local game on the island of Esturoy where we stayed on the farm. Runavík was the team we got to watch and loved every bit of it. Not that it was good soccer, but attending a free match, watching the kids run on the pitch at half time, and children running up to hugs their dads at the end was amazing to see. There were kids literally riding bikes below the bleachers during the game and freshly brewed black coffee or soda was served at the concessions. A simple life to say the least, yet we embraced every moment of it! Definitely try to make a game if you can! It was a really neat, local experience.

Day 7

• Torshavn morning & Grasagarður playground
• Explore Velbastaður & Kirkjubøur
• Milkshakes from HAPS Burgerbar

Torshavn Morning

Day 7 in the Faroes was fairly lackadaisical and included a morning spent wandering around Torshavn. We enjoyed coffee and breakfast at Brell Café and made our way to the Grasagarður playground. This way by the best playground we encountered in the Faroe Islands (maybe ever). This is a must-do when in the Faroe Islands with kids.

Kirkjubøur

Exploring Kirkjubøur was actually a random part of our trip. We were planning to stay in the Velabastaður our last night in the Faroe Islands. Ironically, this region was right down the road from our Airbnb. I don’t recall reading about anyone who traveled to or recommended this part of Streymoy, but we couldn’t recommend it enough! It was such a beautiful location with stunning views of the surrounding islands and coast. Being a peaceful and walkable location, this is ideal for those looking for a low intensity activity. Be sure to add this to your list if in the area!

After roaming around the bottom part of Streymoy, head to Torshavn for dinner and enjoy milkshakes at HAPS Burgerbar. We heard it was family-friendly, but we excited to see an entire playroom while waiting for our shakes. Naturally, the girls were thrilled to finally see some toys again 😂

Day 8

• Saksun beach
• Dinner at Katrina Christiansen

Saksun Beach

This day was kind of a fail, but the drive was absolutely gorgeous and I recommend attempting Saksun beach regardless of weather. We did not get to walk around or complete the hike due to high winds and rain, but the area was beautiful. Regardless, the drive from Torshavn to Saksun gave us a lot of New Zealand vibes. I wish we got more photos and could’ve spent more time there, but I see why it’s one of the more popular spots in the Faroes. When visiting the Faroe Islands with kids, this is a must-see destination.

Dinner at Katrina Christiansen

For our Faroe Islands finale, we decided to splurge and try one of the most recommended meals in Torshavn. As badly as we wanted to try a Michelin-star restaurant like ROKS, we decided that the experience with toddlers was risky. That being said, we couldn’t have been more pleased with our experience at Katrina Christiansen.

Based in an old home, the restaurant has two stories and individual rooms for families. We couldn’t believe how accommodating they were to young families. They offered us markers and coloring paper for the girls, high chairs, toys, and a reasonable kids menu. The fact that we could dine separately and not feel as though we were bothering any other guests was so relieving. This is a must do for a traditional Scandinavian meal. We recommend the lamb!

Toddler & Baby Tips

• Diapers, formula and other baby items can be found in local town groceries
• Except in Torshavn, small restaurants and cafes did not have high chairs
• Main hospital is in Torshavn. There are rescue helicopters in case of emergencies
• There are playgrounds and soccer fields on each major island
• We were able to find something for the girls to eat every where we ate. Food pouches can be found in grocery stores
• Pack extra snacks, pouches, etc. for hikes. Never too many snacks!
• We recommend the Osprey Poco Lt hiking carrier for littles. You can purchase the cover for easy transportation. (Check out our full baby travel gear here!)

Seeing the Faroe Islands with kids doesn’t have to be challenging. It is truly an immersive nature experience for them and you! Although the islands seem extremely remote, they are not as difficult to reach as one may think. With careful planning, this trip can help make memories that last a lifetime for your family.
