点评:We decided on our ring road trip to head up the 939 to visit Folaldafoss having seen it on the map and wanting to stop. It didn't look like too much of a detour from the ring road so assumed it was a quick 5 minute detour...WRONG!!!
We were driving on a very wet and windy day having had a storm arrive from across the Atlantic and this meant driving was a little cautious anyway. The 939 although not an F-Road officially is a dirt / gravel road with plenty of pot holes that would make the average 2-wheel drive scream with terror...and if the car doesn't you may when you hear the suspension going like a sewing machine in a power surge!
The road is a mountain pass so as you are going up the incline it is winding and cars coming the other direction mean slowing down is essential. After a good 10 minutes or so (only about 4-5km) we arrived at the car park at the top of a rock that looks down on Folaldafoss. The falls were stunning with that glacial cool blue pool at its base it really was worthwhile driving up there, but maybe something to consider if your a less confident driver and I definitely wouldn't recommend a 2WD unless you have top insurance included!

我们在一个非常潮湿多风的日子里开车,因为大西洋对岸刮来了一场暴风雨,这意味着开车无论如何都要小心谨慎。939 虽然不是正式的 F 路,但它是一条泥土/碎石路,有很多坑洞,会让普通的两轮驱动车惊恐地尖叫……如果汽车没有,当你听到悬架像缝纫机一样在电涌中发出声音时,你可能会感到恐惧!
这条路是一条山口,所以当你上坡时,它蜿蜒曲折,而从另一个方向驶来的汽车意味着减速是必不可少的。大约 10 分钟后(只有大约 4-5 公里),我们到达了俯瞰 Folaldafoss 的岩石顶部的停车场。瀑布非常壮观,底部有冰川般清凉的蓝色水池,开车去那里确实值得,但如果你对驾驶不太自信,可能需要考虑这一点,而且我绝对不会推荐你使用两轮驱动车,除非你购买了顶级保险!
