The experience
Four hours.
Many sides of the Faroes.
When the day’s conference programme ends, the conversation continues out in the islands.
Greengate’s guided tour brings the NordAN community together in a different setting: open landscapes, significant historic places and the quiet character of Tórshavn’s oldest quarter.
Living history in Kirkjubøur
Visit the islands’ historic and cultural heart, where medieval heritage and present-day village life meet.
A closer look at the capital
Return for a guided walk through old Tórshavn—turf-roofed houses, narrow lanes and stories by the harbour.
Planned route
A journey from the heights to the harbour.
The route is designed to reveal different layers of Faroese life in one unhurried afternoon. Stops may adapt to local weather and conditions.
Panoramic viewpoints
Begin with a scenic drive above Tórshavn and an introduction to the landscape that shapes life on the islands.
Kirkjubøur
Pause in one of the Faroe Islands’ most important historic settlements, framed by sea and mountains.
Norðradalur
Continue through the dramatic western landscape—with a chance to spot the distinctive Faroese horses along the way.
Historic Tórshavn
Finish on foot among the old town’s red buildings, grass roofs and intimate lanes.
