그룬다르피야르다르바에르 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

In April, we had to cross the small stream that flows from the waterfall. This was done relatively easily in two steps over existing stones.

Many wild birds directly in the lake

fantastic place, i would go back

The Kirkjufellsá river falls there in two stages, totalling 16 metres down. The waterfall is always well attended and offers a very beautiful photo opportunity.

We visit the most photographed landmark, the 463-meter-high Kirkjufell mountain. It is a picturesque mountain that rises high above the town of Grundarfjörður on the Snæfellsnes peninsula. It is known as the most beautiful mountain in Iceland. A hike or climb to the top should not be attempted without a guide, as the narrow paths can be difficult to see even in summer. The narrowness of the paths makes it imperative that every step is the right one. Straying from the path has already proved fatal.

Not far from Grundarfjörður, embedded in the impressive landscape of the Snæfellsnes peninsula, a picturesque spectacle of water and stone reveals itself. The journey there is an experience in itself. As you approach the destination, the silhouette of Kirkjufell, one of Iceland's most striking mountains, becomes increasingly clear. It towers majestically over the landscape and becomes the perfect backdrop for the roaring waters of Kirkjufellsfoss. The Kirkjufellsá River cascades its water in two impressive steps, a total of 16 meters. With every drop that falls into the depths, you feel the untamed power of nature. Very close to where the water flows into the bay of Grundarfjörður, a dam testifies to the connection between man and nature. And the old bridge from 1955, which stands above the waterfall, is a reminder of the times of yesterday. No matter whether the wind blows hard through your hair or the calm of the day envelops you, Kirkjufellsfoss always retains its magic. A paved path winds along both sides of the waterfall and invites you to admire it from different perspectives. There are always opportunities for the perfect photo, especially with Kirkjufell in the background, watching over the Foss like a proud guardian. It's no wonder this place is one of the most photographed in Iceland. But despite the crowds of visitors who come here, the place never loses its charm. Anyone who comes here is enchanted by its beauty and the aura that surrounds it.

From here you have a great view of Kaldnasaborgir and Bodvarskula
