Foss is the Icelandic word for waterfall, and we saw a lot.

Oxafoss was the first waterfall that we visited. It was beautiful, but we had no idea of the number and size of waterfalls that we would see after.

Gullfoss is gigantic!

 At Seljalandsfoss we got to walk behind the falls and get wet!

Skogafoss: we got to camp with this waterfall as our view out the “kitchen” window.

We hiked up 411 or 416 steps (depending on who was counting) to the top.

Dettifoss is the most powerful waterfall in Europe.

Selfoss, just a 1.5 km walk upriver from Dettifoss, is a series of countless waterfalls.

Hafragilsfoss is just 3km downriver from Dettifoss.

Some were just great places to break up the drive and stretch our legs:

Folaldafoss
Rjukandifoss

And some just surprised us on the side of the road.

Godafoss: see how many different falls you can spot.
