Discover Iceland
Jökulsá á Fjöllum is a river or watercourse in the Icelandic Highlands 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 Reykjahlíð and Krafla. Take care around riverbanks and gorges, especially during snowmelt or heavy rain when water levels may rise quickly.
Jökulsá á Fjöllum is one of Iceland's major glacial rivers. It flows north from Vatnajökull to Öxarfjörður and forms major waterfalls including Dettifoss.
