Dynjandi
Dynjandi (Icelandic pronunciation: [ˈtɪnjantɪ] , also known as Fjallfoss [ˈfjatl̥ˌfɔsː]) is a waterfall located in Arnarfjörður in the Westfjords region of Iceland. It is the largest waterfall in the Westfjords and has a total height of 100 metres (330 ft). Below it are five other waterfalls: Háifoss, Úðafoss, Göngufoss, Hundafoss and Bæjarfoss.

Dynjandi and other waterfalls in Dynjandisá and their surroundings were protected as natural monuments in 1981.

Dynjandisheiði is a mountain pass over the falls that contains the first-built car-accessible road to Ísafjörður.
