  • La Volta a les Illes Fèroe (Kring Føroyar en feroès) és una cursa ciclista per etapes que s'organitza a les Illes Fèroe. La cursa es disputa en les modalitats masculina, femenina i júnior en una sessió de pròleg i quatre o cinc etapes, la distància de les quals varia depenent de la categoria. Se celebra el mes de juliol just abans de l'Ólavsøka (la festa nacional de l'arxipèlag), tot i que alguns anys s'ha disputat en altres dates, com és el cas de l'edició del 2019 que es va fer al mes d'agost. Tot i que la Kring Føroyar es va disputar ja el 1996, la primera edició oficial va ser el 1997. Als inicis, per qüestió de patrocini, la prova es deia Statoil Kring Føroyar, i quan la companyia Statoil va canviar de nom a Effo es va passar a dir Effo Kring Føroyar. El 2015 es va canviar de patrocinador per Volvo, i des de llavors la cursa porta el nom de Volvo Kring Føroyar. La Volta ciclista a les Illes Fèroe sempre acaba a Tórshavn, la capital de l'arxipèlag. Fins al 2019 Torkil Veyhe és el ciclista que més títols ha guanyar, 6 en total (2009, 2010, 2012, 2014, 2015 i 2017). (ca)
