Medium-sized waterfall falling into a narrow rock gorge and then flowing through it. The way to do this from the road is sometimes slightly tricky, rock edges unsecured.

With the canyon and the colours around it, one of the most beautiful waterfalls.
The waterfall is called Godafoss (Bjarnarfjörður), Holsfjall is the mountain north of it. The Icelandic fjall = mountain

Goðafoss is a lesser known waterfall compared to the famous Goðafoss near Myvatn. This Goðafoss is located in the Westfjords in northwest Iceland, near Bjarnarfjörður. From road 61 (Djupvegar), take road 643 towards Bjarnarfjörður. 1 kilometer before Bjarnarfjörður, you cross the Hallardalsá river. From here, it is a short walk (200 meters) to this beautiful waterfall.

The meltwater from the Hallardalsá river falls over 30 meters in a narrow gorge. From the roadside, you can walk to the top of the gorge to see Goðafoss from above. The waterfall is easily accessible and can be viewed from different sides.
