Haifoss is one of the 2 truly unforgettable hikes within 2 hours drive from Reykjavik. The other was Glymur. There is a parking lot, probably big enough for 30 cars. The views of Haifoss and adjacen…Full review by MichaelC11862

We drove 1800 miles in Iceland over 2 weeks and saw all the major sights and this is one of my very favorite. This is a series of several waterfalls that plunge into a canyon. You can see them from…Full review by lovetotravel560

When I was at Haufoss, there were no busses. They have a very hard time making the trip. I saw a motorcycle, helicopter, numerous rugged cars, but no busses. I even saw local guides in 4wd cars ferrying people from their street cars from an area a few miles away. That is an option, but the best option is to rent a capable car and drive yourself.

Q:
I would like to travel from Haifoss to Gullfoss. On google maps it show that after leaving the road to Haifoss I can turn left, go north on an unnamed road. There is a break in the road near Tindfjallajökull and then it continues and turns into 349 near Tungufell. By break I mean I can see the road but google maps does not recognize this section as drivable. On my International Travels Maps of Iceland, it shows this route as an unpaved seasonal road. We will be driving a (highly insisted upon by my husband) Hummer. My question is: Would we be able to drive through this unnamed, unpaved seasonal road in early August?
A:
From Hotel Gullfoss it took us about 2 hours. It's a very winding road in the higher parts so speed is not a factor.
Q:
I'm wondering if it is possible to get to Haifoss with a 4x4 vehicle in the first week of April?
A:
I went in summer with a 2WD (a Toyota Yaris) and don't see any reason why you should not be able to get to the place with a 4WD once snow has somehow cleared a bit. Road is OK …

I went in summer with a 2WD (a Toyota Yaris) and don't see any reason why you should not be able to get to the place with a 4WD once snow has somehow cleared a bit. Road is OK even for a 2WD with just a couple of difficult spots. It takes time, though.
