A nice scenic area on the Faroe Islands:


I don't know if the sign fits.. It is Icelandic :?

:shock:
That is just amazing....
Can´t wait to drive on this map :D

The sign dos not fit! We have no sign for "blind" hills on FO. IMO it looks awkward :roll:

I have driven that road weighing over 80 ton total in wintertime! It was a very interesting trip at night, all chained up and took about 4 hours from the harbor and over the mountain.
The first hour was getting up the hill from the harbor....
Could not get any speed and had to brake the ice whit the chains, back down, shovel the ice away, brake 1-2 meters more, back down and shovel again and again and.... :evil:

Very exiting and loved every minute off it :lol:


Edit* Just to compare: At normal weight and dry road the same trip would take max 30 min :!:
Thanks for the nice suggestion, I shall remove the sign, actually I am hoping to replace the current signs by more realistic ones.
I really like the fact that you have been there IRL, especially as it is such a small village. I would love to go there myself one day!
But for now I hope you'll enjoy the virtual trip, the mountain pass should provide a real challenge:)
The trip has to be made in summer unfortunately.

I used google maps to recreate the pass, any tips about signs or markings would be highly appreciated.

Check the research thread
I have added images and road videos
And will add more by time

I will try to create the country in 1:15 (or larger as standalone) when the Scandinavien DLC is released
I need the new logistic companies for an idea I have, meanwhile I am upgrading my 3D modeling skills from complete noob to something more useful :D

You might give your Raststätten real names on the signs to make it even more local ;)
