Hiking on private land in the Faroe Islands requires permission from the landowners and hikers should always stick to walking on designated walking routes.
For this project, Visit Faroe Islands has asked permission from landowners in all the areas where tours take place.
The ‘Remote Tourism’ project might require that the person being controlled venture off the designated path. We want to stress that this is not behaviour that we normally condone. However, given the circumstances surrounding the project, an exception has been made for these tours.
