Seljalandsfoss is one of the most iconic and frequently visited waterfalls in Iceland. The waterfall is fed from the infamous glacier capped Eyjafjallajokull volcano. I say infamous because its the volcano that erupted several years ago, stalled flights across the world and put Iceland on the map! One of the unique experiences at Seljalandsfoss is being able to walk behind the giant waterfall. And be completely drenched from the waterfall spray since you’re so close to the falls. The walk behind the falls can be challenging and slippery so you just have to make sure you’re well covered and have good hiking shoes. The falls is around 2 hours drive from Reykjavik so it’s an easy drive out. There are a load of very iconic photos of this waterfall taken by a heap of famous photographers. This is my take and experience of the falls, tourists and all.
