Dynjandi (Fjallfoss)

Dynjandi (also known as Fjallfoss) is the largest waterfall in the Westfjords region of Iceland and is considered to be one of the most impressive waterfalls in all of Iceland. The waterfall in made up of 7 waterfalls, each with its own name, one of which is Dynjandi. Dynjandi means “thunderous”. The total height of the waterfalls is about 100 m.

Reviewed By TonySwiss

The best view of these spectacular waterfalls is from the car park, from where you can view the main falls, at the top, and the various cascades below them. If you are fit and sure of foot, you can climb alongside the stream to stand below the main falls, a sheet of water 60 meters wide falling 100 meters over a horizontally stratified rock face, mimicking a leaping chessboard made of water; quite remarkable, and a sight you will never, ever forget.
