The waterfall Glymur, at 196 m, is the highest waterfall of Iceland.


It is situated at the rear end of the Hvalfjörður. Since the opening of the tunnel under this fjord, most people avoid the area. However, it is a very beautiful part of the country with volcanoes and tree plantations.


To get to the waterfall, it is necessary to take a treck to Botnsá and hike up the mountain.
