Iceland is home to many braided rivers which are known for their wide, shallow channels that split into smaller streams, creating temporary islands of sediment. They form mainly because of volcanic activity and melting glaciers. While it’s hard to count all the braided rivers in Iceland due to their ever-changing nature, some standout examples are the Þjórsá, Iceland’s longest river, and Jökulsá á Fjöllum, which flows from the Vatnajökull glacier and leads to the breathtaking Dettifoss waterfall.
