Seljalandsfoss is a breathtaking waterfall in Iceland, located on the southern coast of the island. It is one of the most famous and most visited waterfalls in Iceland.
What makes Seljalandsfoss special is the fact that visitors can walk behind the cascading water curtain, which is a truly incredible experience. The waterfall falls about 60 metres from the cliff.
Thanks to the path leading behind the waterfall, you can admire the waterfall from a different perspective and as you start to approach the waterfall, you will feel the ever-present dew.
Access to Seljalandsfoss is easy, with parking and well-maintained trails. Visitors can explore the waterfall at their own pace and admire the views. There are several spots near the waterfall from which you will get great photos.
Seljalandsfoss is located near the famous Ring Road, which is why it is a popular tourist destination. It is therefore recommended to plan your visit to the waterfall for the morning, before the parking lot starts to fill up with buses of tourists. It’s a must-see for hikers and photographers, and a stop at it won’t take much time. But we definitely recommend combining your visit with the next waterfall, Gljúfrabúi.
