Seljalandsfoss -- South Iceland Waterfall --

Seljalandsfoss 20210714

 

Seljalandsfoss Waterfall is a beautiful waterfall located in the South Coast of Iceland. This spectacular natural wonder drops around 60 meters into a tranquil pool below. Walk behind the waterfall to view it from a complete 360° angle!

Seljalandsfoss Waterfall will likely be one of the first things you hear about when it comes to Iceland. The waterfalls of Iceland have truly made a name for themselves all around the world but Seljalandsfoss waterfall stands at the top.

When visiting you should be prepared to get a little wet because Seljalandsfoss is one of few places in the world where it’s possible to walk behind a waterfall.

Following the pathway from the base of the cliff will take you behind the vigorously tumbling waterfall.

Seljalandsfoss is on the Seljalands River, which flows all the way down from the famous stratovolcano, Eyjafjall

ajökull!

Seljalandsfoss is hard to miss since the waterfall is located right off Ring Road One.

Seljalandsfoss is another of the famous waterfalls of Iceland.

 

This waterfall of the river Seljalandsá drops 60 metres (200 ft) over the cliffs of the former coastline.

 

It's also possible to go behind the waterfall and take the picture another angle, but the spray was so large that I quickly gave up.

 

I really love my camera and lens, so that angle will have to wait for a next visit ;)

View on the Seljalandsfoss, before the walk around it start...

Our guide told us that two days prior to our arrival at this location, a boulder had fallen in the area behind the main falls. While waiting for his charge in the adjacent parking lot, he had heard a loud noise - which he thought unusual. Needless to say we did not explore behind the falls, but managed to get close enough to feel the spray and of course snap a few photos.

 

Seljalandsfoss is located in the South Region in Iceland right by Route 1 and the road that leads to Þórsmörk Road 249. The waterfall drops 60 m (197 ft) and is part of the Seljalands River that has its origin in the volcano glacier Eyjafjallajökull. Visitors can walk behind the falls into a small cave.

 

Seljalandsfoss is one of the best known waterfalls in Iceland. It is 65 meters high according to the National Land Survey of Iceland and it is breathtakingly beautiful. It is a must visiting Seljalandsfoss when visiting the south-coast, you will not regret it!

 

It is possible to walk behind the waterfall so bring a raincoat as you will get wet from the drizzle. It is awesome walking behind Seljalandsfoss, especially on a sunny day when one can catch a rainbow. In winter time the path is closed when it gets too slippery and dangerous to walk behind the waterfall.

Seljalandsfoss, South-Iceland 20200730

 

Seljalandsfoss waterfall along Iceland’s southern coast is fed by melting water from the famed glacier-capped Eyjafjallajokull volcano. This powerful waterfall cascades into a pretty meadow. However, the path that runs behind the curtain of water is the main attraction.

 

The waterfall is formed by the Seljalands River, which originates in Eyjafjallajökull Glacier Volcano. Filled with glacier meltwater, the river rushes south and cascades down the high rugged wall of the cliff.

 

In popular culture, Seljalandsfoss Waterfall in Iceland has been featured in movies and music videos. Justin Bieber’s music video for the song “I’ll Show You” was filmed at many South Iceland attractions, including Seljalandsfoss. Parts of the TV series “The Amazing Race 6” and “CKY2K” were shot near the waterfall.

This image was a tough nut to crack. The mist of the waterfall was all over the place and by the time the long exposure finished, the camera, the filters and myself were completely wet. I'm trying to bring across that feeling of getting a cold shower in this image. Hope it works.

The popular Seljalandsfoss waterfall lets visitors to walk underneath the massive waterfall. Just make sure you don't mind to get wet.

On a gray and wet Iceland morning, the drizzle held up long enough for me to photograph this silky roadside waterfall. The waterfall drops 60 m (197 ft) and is part of the Seljalands River that has its origin in the volcano glacier Eyjafjallajökull.

Seljalandsfoss waterfall , Iceland.

Seljalandsfoss is a waterfall in Iceland. It was a waypoint during the first leg of The Amazing Race 6.

Seljalandsfoss is situated in between Selfoss and Skógafoss at the road crossing of Route 1 (the Ring Road) with the track going into Þórsmörk.

This waterfall of the river Seljalandsá drops 60 meters (200 ft) over the cliffs of the former coastline. It is possible to go behind the waterfall. (Wikipedia)

My third day in Iceland travelling the south coast towards Vik.

 

The power and beauty of this waterfall are incredible. I was lucky enough to arrive at Seljalandsfoss when sunlight was hitting the water, creating this surreal effect (helped with a little post-processing).

Comme dans Tintin, on peut se cacher derrière cette haute et superbe cascade de Seljalandsfoss, Islande.

The name of this waterfall is Seljalandsfoss. He is pretty tall as you can see when you compare it to the person in the left corner of the photo :)

Seljalandsfoss, Rangárþing, Island, 2021

 

Etwa auf halber Strecke zwischen Selfoss und Vik liegt, etwas abseits der Ringstraße ein Tafelberg mit mehreren Wasserfällen. Am Südende liegt der Seljalandsfoss; er stellt wohl eines der bekanntesten Motive Islands dar.

 

Hier stürzt das Gletscherwasser des Eyjafjallajökull 66 m in die Tiefe. Das Becken am Fuß des Wasserfalls kann umrundet werden, allerdings sollte man dabei wasserfeste Kleidung tragen.

 

Der Ort ist eine der Hauptattraktionen an der RIndstraße und daher stets gut besucht. Für touristenbefreite Fotos braucht es etwas Geduld.

 

* * * * *

 

About halfway between Selfoss and Vik, somewhat off the ring road, lies a table mountain with several waterfalls. At the southern end is the Seljalandsfoss; it is probably one of the most famous motifs in Iceland.

 

Here the glacial water of the Eyjafjallajökull falls 66 meters into the depth. The basin at the foot of the waterfall can be walked around, but you should wear waterproof clothes.

 

The place is one of the main attractions on the RInd road and therefore always well visited. For tourist-free photos you need some patience.
