This speck stops wrecks

While up ahead rises a remote archipelago laced with fjords and straits, at our six-o'-clock we'd only see the churning immensity of the North Atlantic. That view to the oceanic void is just what trekkers to this famous Faroese lighthouse hope to see on a clear day. Wait, there's a lighthouse? Keen eyes may have already spotted the humble white-and-red hut that tops the vertical ridge nearest us. Kallur Lighthouse's guiding beacon has served ships since 1927 from its post here at one of the Faroes' northern extremes.
