The most majestic waterfall of Iceland. One with the most water in Europe. Just go, the road on the west bank is better, paved down to the waterfall, going east from Myvatn alongside highway 1. The eastern bank road is terrible, but the view I find is better from the east. Anyway, access is better from west. Just take care on the bank, please.

Attraction, just east of Namaskard by Lake Myvatn. Hot bubbling mud pools. Smell of rotten eggs :) Worth the visit.

Great hotel. Standing at the edge of Lake Myvatn. Pseudo craters just to the north of the hotel. Hiking path. Just little bit north of hotel is a smoking hut, with local smoked trout. Absolutely wonderful to eat on rye bread or bread in general. Must stop. In summertime sometimes occupied with black flies. Take with you a fly net over your head.
