Dynjandi
A huge tiered waterfall cascading down the mountainside in one of the most dramatic settings in the Westfjords.
About Dynjandi
Dynjandi is actually a series of waterfalls, culminating in the enormous fan-shaped upper cascade. A trail climbs alongside several smaller falls before reaching the base of the main waterfall.
Our practical tips
✓Do not rush this stop — the smaller waterfalls along the walking route are part of the experience.
✓The scale of Dynjandi becomes much more obvious as you walk towards it.
✓Fill up with fuel and supplies when travelling through the Westfjords rather than relying on services at attractions.
