Látrabjarg Cliff

This is a stereo, 1hr 59m composition, based on a walk up and along the most westerly end of the Látrabjarg cliffs in northwest Iceland. These are some of the highest cliffs in Europe, home to millions of seabirds, and are the most westerly point of Europe.

The composition is presented in the BBC’s Radiophonic Travel Agency.
