GET TO KNOW THE PLACE
A waterfall with presence.
Skógafoss falls in a wide curtain over a former sea cliff. Close to its base, you can feel the power of the water and the drifting spray. When sunlight catches the mist, rainbows often appear.
The Ring Road makes this an easy South Coast stop. Stay at ground level for the view toward the falls, or take the staircase beside them for a higher perspective over the surrounding landscape.
