9. Fjaðrárgljúfur Canyon, Iceland
With its moss-covered cliffs and snaking river, Fjaðrárgljúfur Canyon in Iceland looks straight out of a fantasy world. It’s smaller than some on this list, but don’t let its size fool you, it’s breathtaking in its own way.
After a burst of fame from music videos and social media, Fjaðrárgljúfur has become a bucket-list spot. The trails are easy to navigate, making it accessible for almost anyone who wants to see Iceland’s softer, fairy-tale side.
10. Kings Canyon, Australia
In Australia’s Red Centre, Kings Canyon is a slice of the Outback that feels larger than life. With massive sandstone cliffs and lush vegetation tucked into crevices, it’s an adventure that gives you the best of both worlds: towering rock formations above and a hidden oasis below.
The Rim Walk is a must-do here. It winds along the edge and offers panoramic views of the desert landscape. It’s a bit of a climb, but the reward is a bird’s-eye view of a canyon that feels almost prehistoric, with nothing but wide open spaces for miles.
11. Glen Canyon, USA
Glen Canyon, stretching along the Colorado River, is partially submerged thanks to Lake Powell, but that doesn’t diminish its beauty. The sandstone cliffs and unique formations still make it a standout, and exploring it by boat is a popular way to experience its peaceful, rugged charm.
