📍 Múlafossur waterfall
Gásadalur, Faroe Islands 🇫🇴 

Gásadalur is home to Múlafossur waterfall that drops 30 metres (98 ft). Gásadalur (Danish: Gåsedal) is a village located on the west side of Vágar. It is on the edge of Mykinesfjørður, surrounded by the highest mountains on Vágar, and boasts a panoramic view of the island of Mykines. Until 2004, it could only be accessed by hiking over the mountains. But then the Gásadalstunnilin tunnel was made and it became possible to drive through by car or bus. 

That’s how we arrived, on a shore tour with @vikingcruises. The stop here was short. While some hustled and visited the village & the waterfall, I only saw the waterfall because I was captivated by how beautiful it was. When you’ve seen a place hundreds of times in photos, you often wonder if they will live up to the hype when you finally see them in person. And while I’d like to tell you this one doesn’t, so I don’t contribute more to overtourism - in this case, I can’t lie - it does. It’s the kind of landscape that makes you understand how legends of gods and monsters came to be. A place that seems somehow elevated above and outside of our everyday reality. And yet, for the < 20 residents of Gásadalur, it’s just - home. 

Stay tuned for more stories from another [hosted but not paid] adventure with Viking. This is absolutely not the only place worth visiting in 🇫🇴 and I hope to convince you of that with my next post. The “Iceland’s Majestic Landscapes” itinerary includes stops in Iceland, the Faroe Islands, and Norway. #MyVikingStory
