Darkness for Astrogazing: With long, dark nights and little light pollution, November is a great time for stargazing. On clear nights, the stars feel close enough to touch, and if you're lucky, you might even catch a glimpse of the Northern Lights dancing over the rugged landscape. Just another perk of braving the November chill.

Going to see a man about a Sheep: Seek out some local farm visits. You'll be greeted by a brisk breeze, followed by a personal tour or a cosy dinner/tea session with your hosts. As the wind howls outside, you’ll be snug indoors, enjoying farm-fresh food and stories about life on the land. It’s the ultimate Faroese farmcation.

Enjoy the Force of Water: November rain means the waterfalls that move down the cliffs are in full force. Almost every road you take offers a view of some hidden gem waterfall, often with no name. You might even drive through a mist of waterfall spray—just another reason to embrace waterproof gear.
Winter Walks: Winter hiking in the Faroes is still plentiful and diverse. Many of the trails stay open through November, offering breathtaking views of the islands’ majestic landscapes. Some of our favourite winter-friendly hikes are the walk around the lakes in Toftir and in Eidi on Eysturoy, and Trollkonufinger and Lake Sørvágsvatn on Vagar. See more here. 

The World's Smallest club scene: November nights are long, which means ideal conditions for dancing it up in bars and pubs. The Faroese nightlife might not always be wild, but it’s quirky and always in good spirits. Don’t be surprised if the local pub has a knitting corner, sometimes equipped with a local singer-songwriter*. The Faroese know how to combine warmth with fun.
