Waterfall

Glanni is a small waterfall on the Norðurá River in West Iceland. It’s not as grand as Iceland's other waterfalls, but it’s a peaceful one, and locals say the area is home to elves, which adds a bit of Icelandic folklore to the visit. The waterfall sits along one of Iceland’s most famous salmon rivers, surrounded by lava fields, greenery, and nice walking paths. There’s a short, easy walk from the parking area to a viewing platform by the river, making this an easy stop if you’re already driving through the area.

Here is the hike route :)
