Taking a walk, to a place where lake and ocean meet, alongside the largest lake of the Faroe Islands, called Leitisvatn or Sørvágsvatn. Size 3.4 square kilometers, located on the island Vágar. It makes sense, since it’s not a smart idea to go hiking in the mountains at this time of year (the hare hunting season takes place, annually from 2 November to 31 December). Therefore, Leitisvatn is a good choice. The amazing cliff in the background of the picture is Trælanípa. And before we turn round and go back the same way that day, we will reach Bøsdalafossur, a 30 meter vertical drop, the famous waterfall flowing directly into the North Atlantic. A peaceful scenery bathed in purple winter light.
