It is 60 meters high with a foot path behind it at the bottom of the cliff, but with a thin cascade. It is the only known waterfall of its kind, where it is possible to walk behind it.
Seljalandsfoss is arguably Iceland's most famous waterfall because you can hike through the back of it and view it from the inside out. I read that it is the only known waterfall where it is possible to do this. The waterfall drops 200 feet from rocks above into a serene little pool below.

The 60mph winds and 80mph gusts persisted through day 2 of our trip, but we still had a blast.
The Ring Road (Route 1) goes around the outskirts of Iceland and offers an amazing amount of versatility and beauty in it's landscapes.
This is Seljalandsfoss. It is 200 feet high and an incredible sight even in the relatively miserable weather we were experiencing. The wind blew the water to the sides of the waterfall which formed some intense ice formations.
To help with scale: the tiny little person standing on the pathway leading up to the ice formations in the middle is my wife!
From Wikipedia:
Seljalandsfoss is one of the best known waterfalls in Iceland. Seljalandsfoss is located in the South Region in Iceland right by Route 1 (Iceland) and the road that leads to Þórsmörk Road 249. The waterfall is one of the most popular waterfalls and natural wonders in Iceland. The waterfall drops 60 meters and is part of the river Seljalands-river that has its origin in the volcano glacier Eyjafjallajokull. One of the interesting things about this waterfall is the fact that visitors can walk behind it into a small cave. It was a waypoint during the first leg of The Amazing Race 6.
Seljalandsfoss is one of the most famous waterfalls of Iceland. It is very picturesque and therefore its photo can be found in many books and calendars.
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 metres (200 ft) over the cliffs of the former coastline. It is possible to go behind the waterfall.

Taken around Seljalandsfoss Waterfall in Iceland. This was my favorite area in Iceland. It was breathtaking.
The waterfall you can walk behind. Only you couldn't on this occasion as the path was icy and it was closed. Note the people at the viewing point left for scale.

4th stop...
This waterfall is famous for the fact that you can walk behind it. This assumes it isn't completely iced up, the only way you'd get round there in these conditions is with crampons and good luck!
