Korte is the third largest city in the Faroe Islands and is located on the east coast of Eysturoy (East Island). As an important fishing center and transportation hub of the archipelago, Korte is known for its magnificent fjord scenery and traditional Faroese architecture. The city is surrounded by steep green hills and the deep Kollafjørður fjord, creating a unique natural landscape.
Stretching along the fjord for about 10 kilometers, Korte is one of the longest continuous settlements in the Faroe Islands, with a population of about 800. Its long and narrow layout with houses staggered on both sides of the coast road and mountains at altitude in the background gives it a typical Faroese settlement pattern.
The economy is dominated by fishing and salmon farming, with a modern fishing port. Korte is located at the center of the Faroese road network and is connected to the capital city of Tórshavn (only 15 minutes away) and the northern part of the island by a tunnel, making it an important stopover for tours around the island.
The local area retains its 19th-century black-tarred wooden churches and traditional straw-roofed houses. Visitors can experience hiking routes such as the ridge trail from Korte to Signabøur, with panoramic views over the fjord. The annual summer Korte Music Festival attracts many local musicians.
