Waterfall connoisseurs agree it's not size that counts. The biggest and the highest may be impressive, but
when it comes to cascading water, Iceland's Seljalandsfoss has style.
The sight of the Seljalandsá River dropping 62 meters down the sheer cliff face has made it a must-see Iceland attraction. There's a path that goes behind the cascade, so bring your waterproof camera. I love the mesmerising feeling of sitting by a waterfall and have to tear myself away from them. I am in luck as Iceland has got so many beautiful waterfalls, which I visit often.
One of my favourite trips in my country is visiting the waterfalls in the south, the best known are Seljalandsfoss waterfall and Skógafoss waterfall. The Icelandic term for a waterfall is "foss".Seljalandsfoss is one of the best known waterfalls in Iceland. It is ca 60 meters high 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. See read...guidetoiceland.is
