Brúarhlöð
Brúarhlöð is a rugged canyon where the river is deep, very narrow and fast flowing. During flash floods, the water has eroded the surrounding cliffs, which were formed from volcanic rock fragments. In the river stand two tall rocks that are, of course, giant trolls, solidified because they did not make it back to their cave before sunrise! One is a female (the shorter one) and the other is a male who was carrying a dog on top of his head – well it looks like that from a certain angle. The current bridge is the third one to be built on this site - the two previous bridges were swept away during flooding as they were much lower in height. (Skeiða- og Hrunamannavegur, Iceland)
