Seljalandsfoss

On our last day in Iceland we did the South Coast Tour ... heading south towards Vik, the southernmost town on the island ... passing through a very different part of Iceland.

 

From Reynisfjara we headed back towards Reykjavik, making a couple of stops en route, one of those being the waterfall known as Seljalandsfoss.

 

Seljalandsfoss is one of the best known waterfalls in Iceland. It is situated between Selfoss and Skógafoss, where Route 1 (the Ring Road) meets the track going to Þórsmörk.

 

This waterfall of the river Seljalandsá drops 60 metres (200 ft) over the cliffs of the former coastline. It is sometimes possible to walk behind the waterfall ... but not this day ... it was treacherously icy.
