Skogafoss

Skógafoss is a waterfall on the Skógá River in the south of Iceland at the cliff marking the former coastline.

 

 

After the coastline had receded (it is now at a distance of about 5 kilometres (3 miles) from Skógar), the former sea cliffs remained, parallel to the coast over hundreds of kilometres, creating together with some mountains a clear border between the coastal lowlands and the Highlands of Iceland.

 

 

Skógafoss is one of the biggest waterfalls in the country, with a width of 25 metres (82 feet) and a drop of 60 m (200 ft) and was one of the many Game of Thrones filming locations in Iceland
