Seljalandsfoss
Visitors gather beneath Seljalandsfoss south of Hvolsvollur in South Iceland. The 60 meter (197 foot) water fall lies on Seljalandsá, a river whose headwaters lies beneath the glacier that covers the volcano Eyjafjallajökull..The river falls over former seacliffs. The coast now lies a couple of miles west of the cliffs. The majority of the cliffs are made up of pillow basalt, hyaloclastites, and interbedded sediments which were deposited underwater during the Upper Pliestocene. The waterfall sits close to Seljaland, a farm in the lowlands north of the cliffs.
