Vatnsdalur

A beautiful hiking trail northeast of Snæfell that runs through the valley between Nálhúshnjúkar, Sandfell and Vatnskollur, which contains a small lake from which Hölkná falls to the north. A marked path runs between the parking lot at Hölkná to the north and at Snæfellsnes to the east. It is important to follow the footpath because the moss in Vatnsdal is extremely sensitive.

Distance: 5.2 km.
