Waterfalls of Iceland
This section contains my complete set of waterfall photographs, arranged by municipality clockwise around the country starting from Reykjavík. Click on a photo below to navigate to a page for each municipality.
I’ve included some notes on getting to the waterfalls when it’s not obvious.
Useful links:

The National Land Survey of Iceland has an interactive map viewer that provides detailed information on land features and place names.
Sarpur.is is a cultural history database that is useful for looking up place names and for reading descriptions of areas in the countryside. It’s in Icelandic only.
The Icelandic Association of Local Authorities has a website where there is an overview of Icelandic municipalities.
