Seljalandsfoss is one of Iceland's most visited waterfalls, located in the southwestern region along Route 1. This stunning 60-meter cascade flows over a cliff and creates a unique hiking experience where visitors can walk behind the curtain of water, offering one-of-a-kind photo opportunities and a close encounter with Iceland's raw natural power.

What to see in Seljalandsfoss

The main attraction is the waterfall itself, renowned for its distinctive appearance from multiple angles and the accessible trail that loops around it. Nearby, Gljufrafoss waterfall is hidden within a cave-like alcove just a short walk away, while the surrounding landscape offers views of black sand plains and distant glaciers that characterize Iceland's south coast.

Things to do in Seljalandsfoss

Visitors can hike the loop trail around the waterfall, which takes approximately 30 minutes and allows for behind-the-waterfall exploration during drier months. The area serves as a convenient stop on the popular Golden Circle and South Coast road trip route, with nearby attractions including Skogafoss waterfall and opportunities for photography throughout the day as light conditions change.
