Öxarárfoss is a charming waterfall nestled in Þingvellir National Park, Iceland. With a height of 13 meters and an average width of 20 meters, this waterfall flows from the Öxará river over the Almannagjá gorge cliffs. It's a popular spot for tourists to visit year-round, but expect bigger crowds in the summer. During winter, the waterfall freezes over, creating a magical icy landscape. Don't miss out on exploring this historical gem that offers a glimpse into Iceland's natural wonders!
