Best places: Tourist attractions in Snæfellsbær, Iceland

👍👍 Beautiful waterfall. You can hike to the base of the upper section. It's steep and you'll get warm, so leave your warm clothes behind. Instead make sure to take rain jacket, if you want to get to the falling stream

At the end of the path you will see a big rock giant statue you can use it to not lose your way. This place is also a great start to lo...

There is a small informational sign about the well itself and stairs lead down into the empty wel...
