Discover the Faroe Islands with Palarunca
Between Scotland and Iceland lie eighteen rugged islands where green mountainsides, dramatic cliffs and picturesque villages create breathtaking scenery. During this small-group adventure, we combine the most beautiful places with our shared passion: geocaching.
The concept
This is no ordinary group tour, but a journey of discovery with like-minded geocachers. We combine a carefully planned itinerary with plenty of freedom for geocaching, photo stops, short walks and spontaneous discoveries.
Together, we explore the most beautiful places in the Faroe Islands, while leaving room for personal interests and individual choices.
Who are we?
We are Carl and Patricia, two passionate travellers and geocachers with a great love for nature, adventure and discovering extraordinary places. Geocaching has taken us around the world, often to surprising locations we would otherwise never have discovered.
With Palarunca Travel, we want to share our passion and travel experience with fellow geocachers. We combine carefully planned routes with special caches, breathtaking scenery, local culture and authentic experiences.
We will personally guide you throughout this journey. Not a conventional group tour, but an adventure of discovery together.
Who is this trip for?
For geocachers who enjoy travelling in a small group and love nature, adventure and good company. Comfortable walking shoes and suitable clothing are recommended.

Múlafossur and Gásadalur • Vestmanna Bird Cliffs • Saksun and Gjógv • Sørvágsvatn, the "Lake Above the Ocean" • Tórshavn • Kalsoy and Kallur Lighthouse
