Gullfoss

Gullfoss is one of the largest and most famous waterfalls in Iceland, the water in the Hvítá River flows from the Langjökull glacier and then cascades 32 metres down the two cascades of Gullfoss waterfall. A path leads directly from the car park to it. We recommend taking a raincoat with you as the water splashes from all sides. In summer, approximately 140 cubic meters of water rush over the falls every second, while in winter this number drops to approximately 109 cubic meters.

Together with the Strokkur geyser and Thingvellir National Park, it is one of the stops on the Golden Circle, which contains the most important tourist sites in Iceland. There is a visitor centre near the waterfall.
