Rent A Bike & Outdoor: Explore the Faroe Islands on two wheels

If you love exploring destinations on a bike, the Faroe Islands is a must-visit. With mild temperatures year-round and breathtaking views, the Faroe Islands is a cyclist’s paradise. Based in the heart of Tórshavn, Rent A Bike & Outdoor provides the perfect way to explore the landscape.

From Tórshavn you can explore fjords, steep cliffs, and rolling hills. On multi-day bike rides, you can also explore hidden villages such as Kirkjubøur, with its medieval ruins, or Tjørnuvík, one of the oldest settlements in the Faroe Islands. The ever-changing weather adds a bit of adventure and unpredictability to every ride.

Rent A Bike & Outdoor offers guided tours for every cyclist, whether you prefer leisurely city sightseeing on an e-bike or more thrilling mountain bike adventures. “We want to give people an experience that connects them to Faroese nature and culture,” say Bartal í Gongini and Berit Unn Petersen, founders and owners. The guided tours take tourists past favourite local spots, as well as historic and cultural sites – and of course, you will also see the beautiful nature.

The couple are cycling enthusiasts themselves and wanted to give tourists the chance to explore the Faroe Islands on a bike. “We would always rent bikes when travelling abroad and realised tourists couldn’t do that here, so we started a business ourselves,” says Berit.

For those who prefer to explore on their own, Rent A Bike & Outdoor offers high-quality rentals, including e-bikes, gravel bikes, road bikes, and mountain bikes. E-bikes are the most popular choice, as you can go further, and they make dealing with the Faroese winds much more pleasant.

With friendly locals and a team that ensures you feel at home from beginning to end, there is no way you will not have an amazing time. “We want people to feel comfortable and well cared for. Our goal is to ensure they have an incredible experience and leave smiling from ear to ear,” says Bartal.

Sustainability has been a core value for the company since day one. Everything is done with respect for the Faroese nature. From 2025, Rent A Bike & Outdoor will offer regenerative tours focused on green energy and environmental preservation.

Thanks to the mild climate, you can easily bike all year round in the Faroe Islands, and you never have to worry about getting too hot. With short distances, you can travel far and wide in just a few hours – especially if you are zooming on an e-bike.
