Grundarfoss Waterfall

About the place

Grundarfoss Waterfall is one of the tallest waterfalls on the Snæfellsnes Peninsula, dropping from a height of around 70 meters. The waterfall sits in a quiet valley just above the town, with a well-marked path leading close to its base. The surrounding cliffs are shaped by volcanic layers, giving the waterfall a narrow, almost column-like appearance. Its proximity to Grundarfjörður makes it an easy and rewarding stop, especially for those exploring the nearby Kirkjufell area.
