Guidebook for Kjósarhreppur
Parks & Nature
There's just something to be said about seeing Iceland's tallest waterfall 196mtr. Sure it's a bit out-of-the-way of the tourist routes and it's not easy to get a good view.. But those who persevere are richly rewarded with some of the country's rawest and most stunning scenery within a day trip from Reykjavík. In addition to the falls, we even got to hike through a natural double arch, watch birds gracefully flying and diving before the falls, and look forward to stunning views of Hvalfjörður on the return hike. Indeed, sometimes, it's the whole experience that gives this waterfall the edge over others that were similarly scored.
