Step into the heart of nature’s raw power at Dettifoss, a breathtaking waterfall in Vatnajökull National Park. Marvel at the sheer force of this magnificent spectacle, as it cascades 45 meters in width and boasts the title of being the most powerful waterfall in Europe.
For the best experience, approach the waterfall from the east side of the River Jökulsa, where the road is more accessible. Take a leisurely walk along easy paths to discover the nearby Selfoss waterfall, which cascades 10 meters upstream, or visit the majestic Hafragilsfoss waterfall, which tumbles 27 meters into a steep canyon. Although more of a drive than a walk, the journey to Hafragilsfoss is well worth it for the stunning views it provides.
