FIRST-HAND ADVICE

✓This is for visitors giving the Dettifoss and Jökulsárgljúfur area more time.

✓Do not assume the access experience is as developed as Dettifoss itself.

KNOW BEFORE YOU GO

Access and viewpoints are more remote than at Dettifoss and depend on which side of Jökulsá á Fjöllum you are travelling.

Jökulsárgljúfur

Jökulsárgljúfur
