Kristen Mackiewicz
" If you didn't know any better, you'd think that crevice was just another geological feature of the mountain. However, inside you will find a magical waterfall! A short 15 minute hike up the hillside brings you right into this gem. Rauðfeldsgjá translates to "red-coat-canyon" Time: 45 minutes Rating: 4/5 Crowds: few Vehicle: all accessible, but I wouldn't suggest doing this in the winter. Parking: small lot - free Pro-tip: At the top of the hill, make sure to take in the views back over the peninsula!"

"3.stop – a surreal, grandiose canyon located in the Botnsfjall Mountains - lots of birds (Fullmars, ravens) -access to the interior of the canyon leads past or through the waterfall - you must have sturdy, waterproof shoes - headlamps necessary in case of a snow roof (we visited the canyon at the end of June and the road was under a layer of snow) -quite a lot of tourists, still tolerable. "
"While navigating the untamed terrain of Iceland, we couldn't resist the allure of Rauðfeldsgjá Gorge. It felt like an unexpected treasure concealed among the towering cliffs of the Snæfellsnes Peninsula. The path leading to the gorge's entrance proved both demanding and exhilarating, putting our stamina to the test while gifting us with awe-inspiring vistas along the way."
