Skógafoss is one of the most famous and most visited waterfalls on the island. With a height of over 60 metres and a wide waterfall, Skógafoss is truly a natural wonder of Iceland. Its mighty flow of water creates clouds of dew and offers a breathtaking view.
This waterfall is located in a picturesque landscape near the village of Skógar. The surrounding mountain peaks and green valleys create a beautiful backdrop for Skógafoss and add to its charm.
Skógafoss is also known for its characteristic width of less than 25 metres. You can walk directly to the waterfall. Along the waterfall, a path leads up steps to a viewpoint where you can look down on the waterfall from above, or you can continue along the path to other waterfalls: Hestavaðsfoss, Fosstorfufoss, Steinbogafoss, Fremri-Fellsfoss, Innri-Fellsfoss, Kæfufoss and Skalabrekkufoss.
Skógafoss is easily accessible and there is a car park right next to it. It is a popular stop for tourists on the southern part of the island. Because of its accessibility, it tends to get a lot of tourists, so the walk up the stairs can be long, but the views are definitely worth it.
