Another option for a day trip.
Hvalfjörður is a 30 km long fjord which is located about a 1 hour drive away from Reykjavík.
The name is derived from the large number of whales which could be found and hunted there.
At the "corner" of the fjord stands the highest waterfall in Iceland called (total height: 198m).
This place is not a frequented destination by tourist like or any other waterfall but it definitely is worth visiting!
It takes about a 50 minutes walk to get to the waterfall from the parking area.
The footpath is crossed by a river called Botnsá flowing downwards with huge power.
When the river is flooding it is risky to cross it.
