The only impressive attraction of this town. Along the Skjálfandafljót river there are a number of paths leading to lookouts, but even small things can be worth seeing: maybe it's the lava formations in the area, or it's the flora that has spread on the barren and rough lava soil.
Goðafoss is a waterfall in northern Iceland. It is located along the country's main ring road at the junction with the Sprengisandur highland road, about 45 minutes from Akureyri. The water of the river Skjálfandafljót falls from a height of 12 metres over a width of 30 metres. A 1.8-mile hiking trail loops around the waterfall area.
