About Skógafoss

One of Iceland's most iconic waterfalls, plunging 60 meters over former sea cliffs with a width of 25 meters. Located at the edge of the Eyjafjöll mountain range, this powerful waterfall is the starting point of the famous Fimmvörðuháls hiking trail and produces frequent rainbows in its mist on sunny days.
