Dettifoss

#EuropeGuide Hidden Gems Around Dettifoss: Selfoss and Hafragilsfoss A visit to Dettifoss isn't usually a solo experience. Just about a kilometer upstream from Dettifoss, you'll encounter another beautiful waterfall, **Selfoss**. While not as high as Dettifoss, Selfoss is much wider, creating a beautiful cascade of smaller streams. In contrast to the grandeur of Dettifoss, it possesses a delicate and elegant charm. Downstream, you'll also find another waterfall, **Hafragilsfoss**. This waterfall plunges deep into a gorge, offering a different sense of depth than Dettifoss, and is best viewed from the eastern observation deck. #EuropeGuide When planning your itinerary, it's common to combine the Dettifoss → Selfoss (roundtrip takes 2-3 hours) trek from the parking lot. Because the Dettifoss trail requires a rugged hike, ensure you have ample time (at least three hours) and sturdy hiking shoes. Don't miss the chance to discover hidden waterfalls in Iceland's desolate canyons.
