Fjaðrárgljúfur is a stunning canyon located in southeastern Iceland, near the village of Kirkjubæjarklaustur. Carved by the Fjaðrá River over thousands of years, this majestic natural wonder stretches approximately 2 kilometers (1.2 miles) long and reaches depths of up to 100 meters (328 feet). The canyon's dramatic, moss-covered walls and serpentine river paths make it a popular destination for hikers and nature enthusiasts.
