Glymur Waterfall is Iceland's second-tallest waterfall, standing at 198m (650 ft) and easily accessible by foot. The hike to Glymur takes about three and a half hours round trip, with a thrilling river crossing and steep rocky sections along the way - good fitness and mobility required.

🅿️ Parking: Free (navigate to Botnsá and Glymur Parking)

❄️ Winter: Not accessible. You might be able to get there if there's not much snow, just know it might be more challenging and slippery, depending on conditions.
