Sørvágsvatn/Leitisvatn is the largest lake in the Faroe Islands. The hike along Leitisvatn/Sørvágsvatn out to Trælanípa and Bøsdalafossur waterfall is a favourite among visitors and locals – mostly because of the optical illusion that awaits at the end of the hike. The view of the lake hanging over the ocean is one of the most photographed images from the Faroe Islands. The hike, which takes about 45 minutes to walk one way, is relatively easy. There is a hiking fee of 200kr/person. This fee is paid at the gates. 10 minutes drive from Løðupakkhúsið.

How about a nice trip to one (or several) of the lakes of Vágar? Vágar is enriched with four beautiful lakes. Among these the both the largest and the second largest lakes of the Faroe Islands, Sørvágsvatn/Leitisvatn and Fjallavatn respectively. Or what about a trip to the more remote and heart shaped Vatndalsvatn?
Sørvágsvatn, also known as Leitisvatn, is the largest lake in the Faroe Islands, located on the island of Vágar. The lake is known for its stunning natural beauty and unique optical illusion that makes it appear as though it is hanging hundreds of feet above the ocean. The lake has an area of about 3.4 square kilometers and is situated at an elevation of 30 meters above sea level. However, the cliffs on the western side of the lake are over 100 meters high, giving the impression that the lake is suspended high above the ocean. The optical illusion created by the lake's location makes for a popular photo opportunity. Visitors can hike to the top of the cliffs to get a panoramic view of the lake and the surrounding landscape. Sørvágsvatn is also home to a variety of birdlife, including puffins, guillemots, and razorbills, making it a popular destination for birdwatchers. The lake is fed by several streams and waterfalls, including the impressive Bøsdalafossur waterfall, which cascades over the cliffs and into the ocean. The lake and surrounding area are protected as part of the Vágar Island Nature Reserve, which is home to a variety of plant and animal species. Visitors are encouraged to respect the natural environment and take care when hiking in the area.
