Description

On this tour we will take you on an exciting journey to two of the most spectacular waterfalls in Northern Iceland, the spectacular Aldeyjarfoss waterfall and the hidden gem Hrafnabjargafoss waterfall
We will pick you up by an impressive Super Jeep at Akureyri or at Goðafoss, then drive towards the Center Highlands where we will go Off-Road trough sometimes quite deep snow and challenging but fun conditions to reach the falls.
The first one being the majestic waterfall Aldeyjarfoss which really is a unique waterfall resting just beyond the edge of the harsh and unforgiving Center Highlands and therefore out of reach for most people.
Aldeyjarfoss tumbles through a narrow passage into a wide basin surrounded with black basalt columns, which provide a stark contrast against the snow and ice in winter and the thrashing white foam from the fall, making it one of Iceland’s greatest photographic gems.

After a good stop there we go even further upriver to explore the hidden gem Hrafnabjargafoss. This waterfall is not known by many and very few tourists ever see it, especially during the wintertime when it is the most interesting. Hrafnabjargafoss spreads out over a series of cliffs and at one place it falls into a closed rock bowl, the raging water then continues through a natural submerged tunnel to continue down river. In winter the cliffs around the falls get covered by ice which can truly create beautiful and mesmerizing conditions.
Many photographers we have taken to those falls have been absolutely stunned by their characteristic and beauty and shot some great photos there.
