Djúpavíkurfoss 

Djúpavíkurfoss is a hidden gem nestled in the rugged landscape of the Westfjords region of Iceland. This breathtaking waterfall tumbles down over a cliff, ending approximately 160 meters below before it flows into the Atlantic Sea. From the seaside at Djúpavík, you can get a stunning view of the waterfall with the small town of Djúpavík in the foreground. The river Djúpavíkurá, which feeds the falls, originates from a plateau with several small lakes and mountains reaching up to 524 meters. Djúpavíkurfoss is located directly on road 643 in the village of Djúpavík, near the Reykjarfjörður fjord. If you’re looking for a unique and off-the-beaten-path destination, Djúpavíkurfoss is definitely worth a visit.
