    Here is the effective cave access to the cave, which is up to 39 m deep and a good 1.5 km long.
    Access only with guide and admission.

    Hiking

    The tour ends at the source of the stream you follow. However, about 100 meters further, following the path and a slight incline to the right, you reach a small plateau with a magnificent view. I would definitely recommend this extension. On the way back, you don't reach the lava cave, but rather Selvfallafoss. That's also very beautiful.
