    The horseshoe-shaped gorge Ásbyrgi [auspɪrcɪ] is part of the Jökulsárgljúfur National Park in northern Iceland. Once upon a time, the Jökulsá á Fjöllum was flowing here. This has meanwhile dug a bed further east. Beautiful forest rich canyon.

        Good view of the lake, one stands directly in front of the mighty rock face
