Múlagljúfur Canyon

Hidden from the main road in southeast Iceland, Múlagljúfur canyon is spellbinding with its deep green clefts and the Hangandifoss waterfall pouring down its steep sides. With moss-covered canyon walls, glacier views and pristine nature, it’s a hidden paradise that looks like a fantasy film set.
