Kunoy

Kunoy is one of the most dramatic islands in the Faroe Islands, with a mountain ridge rising from 444 to 830 metres. The landscape is steep and striking, offering impressive views across the surrounding islands.

The village of Kunoy lies on the west coast and is known for its beautiful setting. From here, you can enjoy clear views of Kalsoy. On summer evenings, watching the sun set over the mountains and sea is a truly special experience.

The scenery around the village is both powerful and peaceful. The quiet atmosphere creates a strong sense of calm, making it an ideal place to slow down and take in the surroundings.

Near the village, you will find a small and charming park. In the village itself, an old preserved mill still stands. It remains operational and offers a glimpse into traditional Faroese life.

This is really a case of "the journey to the destination is part of the trip". After driving to the tunnel from Haraldssund, you will get excellent views over Kalsoy. The little village of Kunoy has one the few parks in the Faroe Islands. The mountains in the back make it really look spectacular. Definitely worth the detour.
