Ægissíðufoss waterfall Well-known fishing location on the river and has a salmon ladder. The waterfall is magnificent all year round, as the flow is quite steady throughout the year given that Ytri-Rangá is a spring-fed river. Any changes to its flow rate can for the most part be attributed to spring thaws. A popular hiking trail lies from Hella down to Ægissíðufoss along the Ytri-Rangá River. Caves of Hella Offers exciting guided tours of four mysterious man-made caves in Iceland. The caves are a historic landmark site where you will learn about hidden secrets and other untold stories from Iceland's history. Open every day 9:30 am - 4 pm. Summer guided tours: - English every day at 10:00, 12:00, 14:00 and 16:00. - Tours are in Icelandic on Saturdays at 14:00.
