"Our favorite waterfall of the trip! Klifbrekkufossar is the name given to eight small waterfalls, one above the other, at the bottom of the Mjóifjörður fjord in the Eastern Region of Iceland. The waterfalls are spectacular, zigzagging for about 90 meters up the hill like a giant white snake. The lava hills on both sides are covered with unusually lush and bushy vegetation which contrasts beautifully with the river and waterfalls. Although the prospect of viewing the falls from various spots and angles might seem attractive, there is really only one way to witness its true beauty: the parking lot at the bottom of the falls. This vantage point is the best way to see the rising levels of all the waterfalls in the same vista and experience the magical harmony of the flowing water with its eight installments, all similar in height.
The drive to this waterfall is on a dirt road and is not for the faint of heart!
Forty minutes to one hour to explore."

"Impressive and less-touristed waterfalls are the Klifbrekkufossar Falls, which are divided into no less than seven distinct sections, or steps, almost equal in size."
