Traveling the Faroe Islands | Kallur Lighthouse & Northern Lights | X Overland Nordic Series EP6

Having left mainland Europe on a ferry bound for Iceland, there's a pivotal decision to be made: Go straight to The Land of Fire and Ice or disembark at the Faroe Islands?
The team is eager to see what these seldom-visited islands have to offer and learn all they can about this unique landscape.
What awaits is a week of adventures that include everything from driving the world's first underwater roundabout 600 feet beneath the sea, hiking to the iconic Kallur Lighthouse, catching a glimpse of the Northern Lights, and even discovering the legendary tombstone of an icon.
With nightfall arriving earlier each day, the team is racing daylight to explore every bit of this amazing archipelago before they set their sights on what promises to be the pinnacle of the expedition: ICELAND.

In life or on screen! The 17 to 20 unbroken generations alone blows my mind! The lighthouse...WOW! I couldn't stop saying wow! I thought I had thoroughly been blown away by the Russian border stories! And Troll Road! But, Faroe Islands blew my mind! I'm so happy for you that the weather was kind to you!

    I have wanted to see the Faroe's for two decades now, this video just solidifies the fact that I must do so. I haven't been the biggest fan of your work in the past few years, especially when compared against the older stuff, but I must say that this series is proving to be one of your best yet. It's the first time that I have found myself in awe of the places you're traveling to in each and every episode and it feels like it's the most informative and educational of all of your series up to this point. We all love seeing the cool new builds and products/accessories in the wild and the trials and tribulations that overland travel can entail but with this series I feel like I am watching a documentary showcasing the local sights and history more-so than just a 4WD travel channel. Oh, and everyone loves the Van Stralen's so good on you for including the younger generation in this adventure. Keep up the good work, it's certainly some of your best and I look forward to next weeks installment.

When the Faroese go to the mainland, they often to go the Scandinavian Park Autohof in Handewitt, just over the border into Germany. Its cheaper as there's a form they fill in to get some tax back. You see Scandinavian cars being filled with groceries before heading back north.

    @Maria CANCER - You will lose friends even family as your days of treatment move along. Cancer is a horror few wish to visit. Fear of is the main culprit. The public wishing to watch cancer patients and the overall progress either negatively or positively in my opinion, akin to suffering in silence. Back when I had cancer I spoke to very few about it. My last opinion. Coming here to post your channel is in poor taste. Its not even you asking for our Prayers asking God to be with you on your journey to beating the dreaded disease.
