One of Iceland’s largest falls, Godafoss has an important role in the country’s history... the trails and parking areas have been newly constructed, and access is easy (right off the Ring Road east of Akureyri) which makes it very popular with visitors. There’s a convenience store/gas station plus restaurant nearby too. Enjoy!

One of the main attractions of the Mvatn area, this waterfall is 100 meters across, half as high, and one of the highest-volume in Europe. That said, it is not one of my absolute favourites as it is about massive power rather than good looks. Get there in the morning and a rainbow (or more than one) arches over the river downstream of the falls. There are extensive paths so you can view from different angles. If you have time, drive the gravel road 864 to see the falls from the other side of the river too; this gives you the bonus of a wonderful view down the Asbyrgi canyon.

The walk around this crater starts with a short climb up from the car park which is rewarded by an amazing view into the crater and equally stunning views across the landscape with the huge Lake Myvatn in center stage. Great start to our day here.

Well worth going to. It is actually several waterfalls in one. There are several different vantage points to be able to enjoy these beautiful waterfalls. It is one of the prettiest in Iceland, I believe. Well worth taking time to go to and a hike around. There is also food nearby. It was even prettier with some ice on it because we were there in October and early November. You will not be disappointed!
