Cycling Adventure to Kirkjubøur

For an unforgettable bike ride just outside Tórshavn, the route to Norðradalur offers dramatic scenery and a peaceful escape. The journey begins in the capital and follows the old mountain road that once served as the main route to the airport. As you climb, you’ll be rewarded with sweeping views over Kaldbaksbotn—a stunning fjord nestled between towering hills.

The real highlight comes as you descend toward Norðradalur. The road winds its way down into a small, quiet village tucked between steep cliffs and the sea, with the majestic island of Koltur rising in the distance. Home to just a handful of residents, Norðradalur feels like a hidden world.

There’s no bus service to this remote spot, making it a perfect adventure for those on two wheels. Bring your bike, breathe in the crisp ocean air, and enjoy one of the Faroe Islands’ most scenic cycling experiences.
