The Diamond Circle is a stunning road trip in North-East Iceland that covers a variety of beautiful sightings and hot spots of unearthly landscapes. If you are going around the Ring Road, the Diamond Circle should be included in your Iceland itinerary!
The "classic" route covers the Goðafoss waterfall, Lake Mývatn, the Dettifoss waterfall, Ásbyrgi canyon and Húsavík ("the whale capital of Iceland") and is about 250 km long.
In this video we are taking it to the next level and visit more than 10 highlights in a 320 km Road Trip along the Diamond Circle:
0:42 Grjótagjá
1:02 Hverfjall
1:18 Dimmuborgir
1:56 Skútustaðagígar
2:44 Goðafoss
3:52 Húsavík Whale Watching
5:14 Ásbyrgi canyon
5:36 Jökulsárgljúfur canyon
5:46 Hafragilsfoss
6:00 Dettifoss (East-Side)
6:17 Dettifoss (West-Side)
6:51 Selfoss
7:19 Námafjall Hverir
7:54 Lake Mývatn
There are even more highlights to discover here, but in essence, Iceland is one big stunning hotspot itself :)

This video contains all highlights we did around the Diamond Circle in early June of last year. We didn’t do all of them in 1 day as that is way too packed, but we stayed at Mývatn for 3 nights (so 2 full days) and did the following: When driving in from Bakkagerði in the east we drove to Dettifoss West-Side and Selfoss. Full day 1 in Mývatn: Dimmuborgir, Hverfjall, Grjótagjá, Námafjall Hverir. Full day 2: Húsavík Whale Watching, Ásbyrgi canyon, Jökulsárgljúfur canyon with Hafragilsfoss and a bit further down Dettifoss East Side. On both of these days I highly recommend to drive along lake Mývatn after dinner. You can do a short after-dinner walk to visit the pseudo-craters at Skútustaðagígar and have a couple of excellent viewpoints along the way! On the day we left Mývatn towards the Westfjords, we did the stop at Goðafoss. Hopefully this might help some of you with your itinerary. There are more things to do in this area, but with the planning we did we could do the things above in a relaxing way.

Great video! What camera did you use for these videos? Thanks!

Thank you! Most shots I filmed with just an iPhone 13 pro max (4k 60fps). Main reason for this was the wind that’s always there! The drone shots of Myvatn were done with DJI Mini 3 Pro. During my trip I had 4 camera’s with me (also a GoPro Hero 11 and Sony FDR AX53 handheld, but the drone with ND filters easily outperformed them all.

Is there a map guiding you to drive the diamond circle ? If it does, where to get? Thanks!

The map of the classic Diamond Circle route can be found here: www.northiceland.is/diamondcircle We just used google maps to drive from one highlight to the other.
