Ró Cabins’ Commitment to Sustainability: How We Minimize Our Environmental Impact

At Ró Cabins, sustainability isn’t just a buzzword—it’s at the heart of everything we do. Nestled in the pristine wilderness of the Faroe Islands, we believe in offering unique, nature-immersive stays while ensuring that our presence leaves no lasting footprint on the environment.

From the materials we use to our long-term conservation efforts, our goal is simple: to provide an unforgettable travel experience that protects and preserves the natural beauty of the Faroes for generations to come.

Built for the Future: Sustainable Design & Materials

Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) Construction

Our cabins are built using Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT), a sustainable and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional concrete or steel structures. CLT is not only strong and durable, but it also has a much lower carbon footprint, making it the perfect choice for eco-conscious building.

Minimal Impact on the Landscape

Unlike large-scale hotels that require heavy infrastructure, Ró Cabins are designed to blend seamlessly into the natural environment. Each cabin is placed strategically on the terrain, minimizing land disturbance and preserving the surrounding ecosystem.

Energy Efficiency & Eco-Friendly Features

Each cabin is designed to retain heat efficiently, reducing the need for excessive energy use. We’ve incorporated natural insulation and passive heating to keep our cabins warm and comfortable, even in the cooler months.

Giving Back to Nature: Our Conservation Efforts

The Náttúruverndargjald (Nature Conservation Fee)

To further our commitment, every guest at Ró Cabins automatically contributes to environmental conservation through the Náttúruverndargjald, a nature protection fee incorporated into the nightly rate. This initiative helps:

✅ Maintain and restore hiking trails to prevent erosion.
✅ Protect local wildlife and delicate ecosystems.
✅ Support landowners in sustainable land management.

When you stay at Ró Cabins, you’re not just experiencing nature—you’re actively helping to protect it.

Encouraging Responsible & Sustainable Travel

We also strive to inspire our guests to be more eco-conscious during their stay. Here’s how we help travelers embrace sustainable tourism:

🌿 Eco-Friendly Amenities – We provide sustainable toiletries, reusable water bottles, and energy-efficient appliances to reduce waste.

🚶‍♂️ Promoting Low-Impact Activities – We encourage guests to explore the Faroes through hiking, birdwatching, and outdoor adventures rather than high-emission activities.

♻️ Reduce, Reuse, Recycle – We emphasize minimal waste and work with local suppliers to ensure our operations remain as green as possible.
