Seljalandsfoss is one of Iceland's most picturesque waterfalls. Plunging 200 feet from the cliffs of the former coastline, its most unique feature is the walking path that allows you to journey behind the waterfall, offering a rare and awe-inspiring perspective.
Take a short hike along the marked path to experience the waterfall from various angles, including the breathtaking view from behind the falls. Heavy snow, ice, or slippery conditions can make the path behind the falls dangerous, so it is often closed from late autumn through early spring, depending on the weather.
