플리요츠달셰라드 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

A very nice place to rest during the climb to the waterfall. There's also a good view of the lake.

Be sure to park in the hikers' parking lot (left bank of the river), not the viewing parking lot (right bank). During our visit at the end of April, it was very muddy, and the footpath to the most famous viewpoint was noticeably icy. I recommend walking poles and very sturdy shoes.

Descent into the canyon only with suitable footwear

Here you can park your car for free (as of 08.2024) and from there you can easily hike to the waterfall and the basalt canyon.

As always, if you come early you can avoid the crowds, and the spartan parking lot at the waterfall near the basalt canyon costs a lot of ISK.

Unfortunately, it is completely overcrowded with tourists and anyone arriving by car also has to pay a hefty parking fee for a shabby gravel parking lot.

The oldest steel bridge in 🇮🇸

Very beautiful canyon. To be on your own you should get there early. West side!
