We visited during wintertime and the waterfall was half frozen, which made it extra epic. Definitely a must see in Iceland.

Amazing and huge waterfall ! Really beautiful in evening

Michael Fuchs

The most beautiful waterfall I got to see. Not only because it‘s so wide but also due to the dramatic setting. On top of this it comes with a story. I took nice pictures on both sides of the falls.

"Waterfall of the Gods." A must see for anyone visiting Iceland anytime! Back in 2018, the east side was open, but now due to constructions , the only access is via the west side of the waterfall .

Such a beauty! If you will try to walk around, you will find very special peaceful and colourful spots.

You might be bale to see this beautiful waterfall at the sunset . Otherwise the swarm of tourists will hide it.

This is for me the best place to camp if you re in a van. Away from the city lights, we were able to see the northern lights in all their glory. Jaw dropping. - George M.
