Gullfoss and Halfoss waterfalls

• Iceland
• South-west

Description

Gullfoss is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Iceland. The wide Olfusa rushes southward, and about a kilometre above the falls it turns sharply to the right and flows down into a wide curved three-step staircase and then abruptly plunges in two stages (11 metres or 36 feet, and 21 metres or 69 feet) into a crevice 32 metres (105 ft) deep.
