Visitors must wade through a shallow stream and climb up some rocks to reach the waterfall, which cascades down into a serene pool.

The waterfall is situated on the Skógá River, which originates from the glacier Eyjafjallajökull. The water cascades down the cliffs in a powerful stream, creating a mist that can be seen from afar.

8. The black sand of Reynisfjara is made up of basalt, which was formed by volcanic activity millions of years ago. The beach is framed by towering basalt cliffs, which create a dramatic and otherworldly landscape. The waves crashing against the shore create a mesmerizing sound and add to the natural beauty of the area. One of the most impressive features of Reynisfjara is the Reynisdrangar sea stacks, which rise up out of the sea just off the shore. Legend has it that these stacks were once trolls who were turned to stone by the rising sun. The stacks provide a stunning backdrop for the beach and are a popular subject for photographers. Visitors can also take a hike to nearby cliffs to see the famous puffins, which nest during the summer months.

About Reykjavik

Reykjavík, la capitale più settentrionale del mondo, è una città colorata e compatta di arte e musica che si apre sui paesaggi vulcanici islandesi.

La chiesa di Hallgrímskirkja, con la torre ispirata alle colonne di basalto, si innalza sopra strade di case dipinte con colori vivaci. Giù al porto, la sala da concerti Harpa, dalle facciate di vetro, scintilla sull'acqua, e la scultura Sun Voyager guarda il mare verso il monte Esja. Laugavegur, la principale via dello shopping, è fiancheggiata da negozi di design, caffè e bar.

Top-ranked sights in Reykjavik: Thingvellir National Park, Gullfoss, Harpa.
