What To Expect
Seljalandsfoss Waterfall is a spectacular natural wonder . What makes this waterfall unique is the fact that visitors can actually walk behind the cascading water, providing an unforgettable and immersive experience. The waterfall is approximately 60 meters high and is fed by a glacier river originating from the Eyjafjallajökull volcano. The water falls into a shallow pool, which is surrounded by lush greenery and rocky cliffs. The constant spray from the waterfall creates a misty atmosphere, which often produces stunning rainbows. Aside from walking behind the waterfall, visitors can also hike along the surrounding trails to get a better view of the waterfall and the surrounding scenery. The area is known for its diverse flora and fauna, including various bird species, wildflowers, and mosses. Nearby attractions include the Gljúfrafoss waterfall,
Skogafoss
Skogafoss Waterfall is one of the most impressive waterfalls in Iceland, located on the South Coast of the country. It is a 60-meter high and 25-meter wide waterfall that drops into a small lagoon. The water comes from the Skoga River and the waterfall is surrounded by lush greenery and cliffs. What makes Skogafoss Waterfall special is its sheer size and power. Its thundering sound can be heard from a distance and it is a breathtaking sight to see. Visitors can walk right up to the waterfall and feel its mist on their faces. It is also a great spot for photography, especially when the sun is shining and a rainbow appears in the mist.Some popular things to do at this attraction include hiking up the stairs alongside the waterfall for stunning views, taking a guided tour of the area, and exploring the nearby Skogar Museum to learn about Icelandic culture

5.00We did this trip in July 2025. You cover a lot of ground and see so much amazing scenery. We saw two waterfalls, the lighthouse up on the cliffs with stunning views of the beach below (and puffins), a black sand beach, and the church at Vik. We had planned to do a glacier walk as well, but we got so soaked at one of the waterfalls that our tour guide, Fazeli, was flexible and found us a hot spring area to visit instead. We were in a hurry to get back to our cruise ship at that point, so we couldn't stay long at the final site. I will say many of the stops had bathrooms, so that was an important piece of information that the website should include. It is a very full day, but well worth it to see so much beautiful scenery and countryside. Our guide was very helpful and accommodating, particularly when we ended up with soaking shoes and socks and no backups. He also brought his own camera and took some great pictures that he shared with us.
