The Faroe Islands are part of the Kingdom of Denmark
The Faroe Islands are Denmark’s best-kept secret. This group of 18 islands is located off the coast of Northern Europe and has been self-governed since 1948. Norsemen first settled them circa 800.
Sunny days are rare, and the islands see heavy rain or snow most of the year. That is why they are covered in vegetation, and the contrast between the steely grey of the sea and the bright green mountains makes for a fantastic view.
