The largest waterfall in Europe. Follow Route 864 or 862 from south to north to arrive. This waterfall is mentioned earlier, in the first few minutes of the blockbuster "Prometheus", the waterfall where the alien fell. It's really a spectacular waterfall. The road conditions are very good when walking on 862. You can hear the sound of the waterfall as you walk. It is very worth seeing

In Lake Myvatn, there are two more famous waterfalls, one is called the waterfall of the gods and the other is called the Dettifoss waterfall. These two waterfalls are the more obvious scenery in Lake Myvatn. And we can also see the Askia volcano in Lake Myvatn. Dettifoss (Dettifoss) is also the location of the American science fiction film "Prometheus" (Prometheus), the sound of water is thunderous.
The Dettifoss, the filming location of Prometheus, the largest waterfall in Europe with the largest flow and drop, feels a bit on another planet! The degree of darkness in the middle of the weather is like the waterfall, and then follow the route I planned to walk north along the coastline of the Arctic Ocean to the scenic town of Husavik. In this way, I saw the sunrise in Iceland and the snow-capped mountains on the other side of the Arctic Ocean. I didn't look at the map while driving and took the rare scenery!
I have seen many waterfalls in the past few days, Dettifoss has the best impression. The main reason may be that I saw the most complete rainbow. The rainbow hung high in the air with an arc exceeding 180 degrees. The flow of this waterfall is very large, but the water is a bit turbid.
Dettifoss has a lot of water, just listen to the sound of water to find the location of the waterfall. Indeed, when the river passes through a desolate area, the powerful current carries mud and sand across the 44-meter cliff, and its momentum is really amazing.
