A deep fissure caused by the continent drift,  Almannagjá ravine is one of the largest in the region - measuring over 7.7 km long.   It is a great place for hiking and scrambling.   Within the region, the Öxará river forms a striking waterfall known as the Öxarárfoss.

when you start at the top of the hill it is easier for older people to walk just before you reach the and of it drink some fresh cold pure water of the waterfall to recharge your batteries:)

Although it was a historical place for the Icelandic people, there was not a lot to see... There was a little canyon, which was nice to walk throu, but that's all.

Spectacular site - especially in good weather. And just to feel you're standing on the site of world's longest uninterrupted parliament. A must for any saga fan.
