## [edit] Summary

- Map of the Faroe Islands with:
- Cities and villages (yellow fields, including cultivated area). Places with a black dot are abandoned (e.g. Skarð on Kunoy)
- Streets between the places (red lines, if dotted, it's a tunnel. Note, that the tunnel between Eysturoy and Borðoy opens in August 2006)
- Some major mountains (black triangles with height in metres)
- Ferry harbours (anchor). Note, that the Faroes have many more harbours (almost at each village at the coast). To see the ferry lines, please check the current map here: http://www.ssl.fo/ferdaatlan/images/fkort2004.jpg
- Major firths and straits (blue). Note, that a fjørður in Faroese is not only a firth (fjord) but can also be a strait.
- Major lakes are captioned
- What is missing on this map: Municipality borders, churches, lighthouses, heliports, hospitals, post offices, hotels and camping sites, as well as height lines, but the scale of the map doesn't allow this (IMHO).
