Gullfoss waterfall
Gullfoss waterfall, or the Golden waterfall as the name translates to, is a waterfall in the river Hvítá that has its origin in the second largest glacier in Iceland, Langjökul glacier. The meltwater of the highlands and nearby glaciers travels through the lava fields and into the canyon before dropping down two stories creating the most magical scene, we today recognize as Gullfoss. Gullfoss falls in two steps, the first one 11 meter and the second one 21 meter and disappears into the canyon that is 20m wide and about 2,5 km long.
