Haifoss

📍 South Iceland

📖 Description

Haifoss is one of Iceland's tallest waterfalls at 122 metres, plunging into the Fossá river canyon. Despite its breathtaking scale it receives only a fraction of the visitors that nearby Gullfoss attracts. From the canyon rim the view opens onto raw volcanic grandeur two great waterfalls, Haifoss and its neighbour Granni, pouring side by side into the gorge below.
