Seljalandsfoss is a stunning waterfall in Iceland that drops 60 meters and is located in the South Region near Route 1. Visitors can even walk behind the falls for a unique experience. The waterfall has been featured in popular culture, including being a waypoint on The Amazing Race 6 and appearing in music videos. Plans to build an information center near the waterfall sparked controversy in Iceland in 2017 due to concerns about spoiling the natural beauty of the area.

As this is one of the most visited waterfalls in the country it does get very crowded during the day, if you are visiting during summer and want to experience it without the large crowds I definitely recommend going in the middle of the night or super early in the morning.

Paid Parking.
