If you take the ferry from Denmark to Iceland you get a 3-day stop-over in the Faroe Islands which are located north of Scotland and about halfway between Denmark and Iceland.
It was our third trip to the Faroe Islands (always as a stop-over to Iceland). We stayed the three nights at the campground in Sandavágur and visited some of our favorite places like Saksun, Tjörnuvik, Gjógv, and Gasadalur.
