Dramatic Cliffs of Streymoy
This collection spans the length of Streymoy, the largest of the Faroe Islands, highlighting its vertical coastline and high-altitude vantage points. It includes the historic 16th-century Skansin fortress overlooking Tórshavn's harbor and the tiered Fossá waterfall, the archipelago's tallest cascade.
