About

Measurements showed that one of the several waterfalls in the area is at least 240 metres (790 ft) in total height, making it the tallest waterfall in Iceland.

Stand close enough and you'll feel the spray on your face. There's something primal about waterfalls - they demand your attention.

Most waterfalls don't have entrance fees, but parking often costs 700-1000 ISK. Keep coins handy or download the Parka app.
