Öxarárfoss Flow

Situated within the Þingvellir National Park in Southwest Iceland, the Öxarárfoss waterfall is one of the best-known waterfalls of Iceland.

 

It flows from the Öxará river that cascades in two streams over the Almannagjá gorge cliffs, that touch the eastern boundaries of North American and Eurasian tectonic plates. With a height of 13 meters and an average width of 20 meters, this waterfall is positioned inside Almannagjá, in the Mid-Atlantic Ridge.
