Message from Dani Guindo

Faxafoss, also known as Faxi or Vatnsleysufoss, is a charming waterfall in South Iceland that may not be as famous as Gullfoss or Seljalandsfoss, but it sure has its own unique vibe. Standing at 23 feet tall and 260 feet wide, this waterfall offers a tranquil setting perfect for picnicking and photography. What sets Faxafoss apart is its gentle slope, allowing visitors to get up close and personal with its cascading waters. Plus, there's a cool salmon ladder on the side for some extra wildlife watching!
