Skogafoss Waterfall

Our next stop is the Skogafoss Waterfall. Due to its south-facing position, it is often covered in beautiful rainbows as the 60-meter (190 ft) cascade of water produces a lot of sprays. This location is one of the most popular visited sights in Iceland. In good weather, you can also climb up the stairs to the top to enjoy the view of this waterfall as well.

Seljalandsfoss and Gljufrabui Waterfalls

Our first stop of the tour will be at the famous Seljalandsfoss waterfall, you’ll be able to see it from afar off the distance as we approach Route 1. As we are getting closer, you’ll be able to experience it right up close as it crashes off the side of  Eyfjallajokull volcano from a height of 60 meters (190 ft). Remember to ask your guide all about the famous eruption here back in 2010, which made Iceland famous all around the world. Within a few minutes walk from Seljalandsfoss waterfall, there is another beautiful but hidden waterfall called Gljufrabui, which most visitors miss, don’t worry, we will show you this beautiful gem.
