Séð

Aldeyjarfoss is a striking waterfall in the Skjálfandafljót river in Bárðardalur, North Iceland. The waterfall drops approximately 20 meters into a narrow channel and is surrounded by impressive and well-formed columnar basalt.

The basalt columns around Aldeyjarfoss are part of a lava field known as Frambruni, also referred to as Suðurárhraun. The pale, glacial color of the river creates a strong and beautiful contrast with the dark basalt rock, giving the waterfall its distinctive appearance.

The cliffs and rocks surrounding the waterfall provide nesting sites for a variety of bird species, including gyrfalcons, merlins, pink-footed geese, greylag geese, and mallards. This makes the area attractive not only to hikers but also to birdwatchers.

Aldeyjarfoss is a popular destination for nature lovers and photographers and is considered one of the most notable natural features along the Skjálfandafljót river.
