From Celtic shores to the volcanic edges of Iceland, this journey traces the footsteps of a wild and magnetic North. In Ireland and Scotland, natural wonders follow one another: mysterious basalt rocks, wind-swept beaches, Highlands carved by lochs and mist still echo with ancient legends. Further north, the Faroe Islands reveal their secrets — sheer peaks, vertiginous meadows grazed by sheep, and jagged cliffs sheltering thriving seabird colonies. Finally, Iceland emerges, mineral, untamed, and dazzling — the perfect conclusion to this odyssey through northern landscapes, where fishing villages, mythology, and majestic nature meet.

Discover Lewis, the largest island of the Hebrides, considered to be the cradle of Gaelic culture.

Not far from Stornoway, the island’s main town, built by the Vikings in the 9th century stands one of Scotland’s most prominent prehistoric sites: The Standing Stones of Callanish. Dating back to more than 3,000 years B.C., these imposing stones placed in a cruciform pattern were laid out according to the moon and stars and their main purpose was to keep track of seasonal cycles, as this was essential for farmers at the time.
