Seljalandsfoss Waterfall

Seljalandsfoss is an iconic waterfall located in the south of Iceland, just off the famous Ring Road. It is one of the country's most famous waterfalls and is renowned for its unique feature, which sets it apart from other waterfalls - it has a walking path behind the falling water.

The waterfall drops approximately 60 meters from a cliff, and the water originates from the melting ice of the Eyjafjallajökull glacier. The glacial meltwater travels down the Seljalandsá River, which creates the breathtaking Seljalandsfoss waterfall.

What makes Seljalandsfoss truly unique is that visitors can walk behind the waterfall, giving them a unique perspective and a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The walk behind the waterfall is not for the faint-hearted, as the ground can be slippery and the waterfall produces a lot of mist, but the views of the waterfall and surrounding area are worth the effort.

During the summer months, the waterfall is surrounded by lush greenery, and wildflowers bloom in the area. In the winter, the waterfall and the surrounding landscape are often covered in snow, creating a winter wonderland that is equally as impressive.
