Detifoss Waterfall in Iceland is one of the most impressive natural phenomena in the country. It is the largest waterfall by water volume in Europe, making it a breathtaking place for travellers. It is located in Vatnajökull National Park, and is accessible by road 862, which leads to both its banks. The path to the waterfall is not difficult, but be prepared for a short walk, which can be slightly slippery, especially near the waterfall itself.
The Detifoss is a waterfall of superlatives – it has power, roar and tremendous effect. The wetter seasons, especially in spring after the snow melts, offer an impressive spectacle of water. Then in summer, the surroundings of the waterfall transform into a green oasis with a colourful floral carpet. It’s a place where you can immerse yourself in the power of nature and feel the incredible energy that nature can conjure up.
Near Dettifoss you can find other, a bit smaller, waterfalls, such as Selfoss or Hafragilsfoss.
Parking is available on both sides of the waterfall, in the East or West parking lots.
