You will drive to the Island of Vágar and discover “the floating lake”, Leitisvatn (also known as Sørvágsvatn) on Vàgar Island. A freshwater gem situated above the ocean; it creates an optical illusion when viewed from above. You will hike to the overlooking cliff Trælanipan, one of the most renowned nature attractions in the archipelago, for a most incredible view of the lake’s vast panorama. Enjoy this exhilarating adventure with remarkable mountain and ocean views and some of the most popular spots for photographs.
