Arriving in the village Syđradalur on Kalsoy, you can take the public bus or drive yourself to the northernmost village, Trøllanes. Arriving at Trøllanes, the local guide greets you and the approx 1 hour hike to the lighthouse begins. Being a local, the guide knows many stories about the surroundings, and he is happy to share his knowledge with you, while he safely guides you to the lighthouse. Arriving at the lighthouse, you have some time to walk around by yourself, take pictures and enjoy all the nature and wildlife that surrounds you.
