Directions

Just a short walk from the famous Seljalandsfoss, you'll discover one of our best-kept secrets: Gljúfrabúi, the 'Canyon Dweller'. To see it, you'll need to venture through a narrow opening in the cliff face, carefully stepping on stones through a shallow stream—so be sure to wear waterproof boots! Inside, the powerful waterfall cascades into a hidden, moss-covered grotto, creating a truly magical and intimate experience away from the crowds. The walk from the main car park takes only about 5-10 minutes.
