Klifbrekkufossar, Multi-tiered waterfall in Mjóifjörður, Iceland

The Klifbrekkufossar waterfall system consists of eight separate cascades that flow down 90 meters through green slopes in the Eastern Region of Iceland.

The name Klifbrekkufossar originates from Icelandic words meaning climbing slope waterfalls, reflecting its structure of multiple tiers descending the mountainside.

Local residents recognize Klifbrekkufossar as one of the natural landmarks that define the identity of the Mjóifjörður fjord landscape.

Access to Klifbrekkufossar requires traveling along Route 953, which remains open exclusively between June and September due to winter weather conditions.

The water descends through seven to nine distinct steps, creating a zigzag pattern that makes different sections visible from various observation points.
