Skogafoss

Skogafoss

After my week in France, I was off to a few days on the Southern coast of Iceland. 

On my first morning in Iceland, I headed out to Skogafoss, just before sunrise. It was only a 15 minute drive from my bed & breakfast, and I was surprised as how easy it was to reach. From the road you can see the parking lot & from the parking lot it was only a minute walk in, or 10 minute hike up to see it from the top. 

As the sun came up, a rainbow appeared at the base of the falls, as it shined on the mist.

Definitely a great first stop on my 3 hour drive towards the Glacier Lagoon, although I do recommend the earlier the better, especially on a good weathered day. Since it has such great road access, Skogafoss becomes busy with tourist pretty quickly, and stays that way throughout the day.
