Gjögurtá is a river or watercourse in Northeast Iceland and an important part of the regional landscape. Icelandic rivers are shaped by rainfall, snowmelt and, in many areas, glaciers, so water levels and conditions can change considerably with season and weather.

Nearby places include Húsavík and Skjálfandi. Take care around riverbanks and gorges, especially during snowmelt or heavy rain when water levels may rise quickly.

Gjögurtá is a small river on Iceland's northeast coast.
