Waterfall

Message from Aron Tómas Guðmannsson

Gullfoss Falls, also known as the "Golden Waterfall," is a majestic and iconic waterfall located in Southwest Iceland. With two cascading stages plunging into a deep canyon, this natural wonder showcases the raw power of nature. Visitors can get up close to feel the mist on their faces and marvel at the stunning views from various walking paths and viewing platforms. Gullfoss is a must-see stop on the Golden Circle route, offering a glimpse into Iceland's rich history and the determination of one woman, Sigríður Tómasdóttir, who fought to protect this beautiful site.
