Ægissufoss

Ægissufoss with the active Mt Hekla in the back


Ægissufoss is a wide river-type waterfall about 16km northwest of the saga town of Hvolsvöllur. What makes this waterfall particularly interesting is that you can photograph it along with Mt Hekla - an active volcano. You can reach this waterfall via a short detour off the Ring Road (Route 25). About 3km on this detour, there's a signed turnoff leading you to the car park for the falls. From there, it's a short walk to get right up to this waterfall on the Ytri-Rangá River.
