Dynjandi waterfall100 m tall

Dynjandi

186 km from Reykjavík

The jewel of the Westfjords. This wedding-cake waterfall drops 100 meters in stages, getting wider as it falls. The drive to get here is half the adventure - remote fjord roads with sheep and zero traffic. Once you arrive, you'll understand why people make the journey. There's a series of smaller falls below too. Pack a picnic.

Gullfoss waterfall

Gullfoss

158 km from Reykjavík

Not the Golden Circle Gullfoss. This is a small, little-visited Westfjords waterfall that shares the name — the famous 'golden falls' is in South Iceland.
