• Gjain - Gjáin (pronounced “GYA-een”) is a secluded oasis nestled in Iceland’s Þjórsárdalur valley. This small, verdant ravine offers a striking contrast to the surrounding stark volcanic landscapes. It boasts several small waterfalls, serene ponds, distinctive lava formations, and basalt columns, creating an enchanting, fairy-tale-like ambiance.
• Haifoss - Háifoss, translating to “High Waterfall,” ranks among Iceland’s tallest and most magnificent waterfalls, cascading 122 meters (400 feet) into a dramatic canyon in the Þjórsárdalur valley. It is often visited alongside its “neighbor” waterfall, Granni, which flows nearby. The sheer force of the water against the ancient, stratified cliffs, with the imposing Hekla volcano in the background, offers a truly awe-inspiring sight. While accessible by car (a 4x4 is recommended for the final gravel stretch), its slightly more remote location keeps it less crowded than some other major falls, providing a more tranquil and powerful experience.
• Volcano Hekla - Rauðaskál Crater:
  Also known as the “Apple Crater,” Rauðaskál is a vividly colorful volcanic crater situated near the mighty Hekla volcano. Its standout feature is a vibrant display of deep reds and lush greens, resulting from mineral deposits and volcanic activity, offering a stark and beautiful contrast against the surrounding dark volcanic desert. Rauðaskál is relatively small and accessible via a short hike (4x4 required to reach the trailhead), making it a popular, photogenic “secret pearl” in the Highland landscape.
• Sigoldugljufur - Sigöldugljúfur, often called the “Valley of Tears,” is a stunning and somewhat hidden canyon located in the central Icelandic Highlands. It’s famous for its countless small waterfalls that seem to weep down its moss-covered, vibrant green cliffs, creating a surreal and magical atmosphere. The bright turquoise glacial water of the Tungnaá river flows gently through the bottom, contrasting beautifully with the dark volcanic rock and colorful vegetation of the canyon walls.

This photogenic oasis is a relatively new phenomenon, formed after the construction of the Sigalda hydroelectric plant altered the water flow of the Tungnaá River. It requires a 4x4 vehicle to access via F-roads, and a short walk from the parking area rewards visitors with spectacular, often uncrowded, views.

• Sigoldufoss - Sigöldufoss is a charming waterfall in the Icelandic Highlands, often noted for its striking turquoise-blue water. Though only about 10 meters (33 feet) high, its vibrant color against the green surroundings makes it very photogenic. Its current appearance is due to the Sigalda hydroelectric power plant, which diverted the Tungnaá River’s glacial flow, leaving the waterfall primarily fed by clear spring water. This transformation has given it a more serene, almost “part natural, part man-made” charm. It’s located near the F208 road, making it a popular stop for those en route to Landmannalaugar.
• Krakatindur - Krakatindur (pronounced “KRAH-ka-tin-dur”) is a striking, jagged mountain peak and dormant volcano located in the remote Icelandic Highlands, often considered part of the larger Hekla volcanic system. Standing at over 800 meters (2,600 feet), it offers rugged, moss-covered landscapes and dramatic views.

It’s a fantastic spot for off-the-beaten-path hiking and photography, appealing to those who want to escape crowds and immerse themselves in Iceland’s wild nature. Reaching Krakatindur typically requires a 4x4 vehicle to navigate challenging, rough mountain tracks (often worse than F-roads, with steep inclines and potholes), as there are no regular paved roads or river crossings directly to it. Its remoteness contributes to its allure as a “hidden gem” in the Highlands, especially when combined with nearby Rauðaskál crater. Customizable location routes in the area.
