Klakkur 360° (Klaksvík, Faroe Islands)

Klakkur is an oddly shaped mountain (413m, 1355ft) with a long narrow top plateau. When standing at the top, you have an excellent view of the surrounding islands, mountains and towns.

In this 360° drone video of Klakkur, you see the nearby town of Klaksvík, the second biggest town in the Faroe Islands. The islands Eysturoy and Nólsoy are to the south. To the northwest is the long narrow island of Kalsoy with the Kallur lighthouse (not visible in the video).

Across the fjord, straight to the north of Klakkur is the southern end of Kunoy. The island has six of the ten highest mountains in the Faroe Islands.

Hiking to the top of Klakkur is easy, it takes about 30 minutes from the parking at Hálsur. Hálsur is a viewpoint between the two peaks Klakkur and Hálgafelli.

Apologies but I used your website before my trip to the Faroes in May this year but only now thought to look on YouTube for any video. This one of Klakkur is stunning. The weather was very mixed for my three days on the islands but I managed a fine weather window when I did Klakkur. I could barely stand but took the necessary shots to stitch into a 360 degree pano. Late afternoon light with sun bursting through dark clouds so I was pleased with the end result. I've seen some views but this one was up with the best. I think your site was one of those that inspired me to spread my wings further than my beloved Scotland and I'm so pleased I did 🙂. Thank you !

This is crazy! 🤬 I'm fed up with this minority of radical extremists who don't live there, who don't know the reality on the ground, who get involved in things who don't look at them, and who give lessons!!We can be green AND NOT EXTREMIST!! Greetings from France to the peoples of the North 🙂🤝🏻🇫🇴🤝🏻🇮🇸...🇧🇻🇸🇪🇫🇮🇦🇽🇩🇰🇬🇱
