Hiking

Take off-road 923, park on Klaustursel farm, cross the footbridge and walk for 5 km. Don't go to Grund farm on the west rim because there's no way to climb down from there.

Hiking

Go past the main basalt columns to the small wooden bridge (upstream to the left) to see another amazing waterfall.

Hiking

In April/May you should not stop by or after heavy rains there can be flooding here. Only a dam project brought this basalt canyon to light...
