Waterfall

Message from Nicole Zohdi

Þjófafoss, a hidden gem in South Iceland, is a picturesque waterfall named after thieves who met their watery fate here. Located on the Þjórsá river, it offers a stunning view with a giant mountain backdrop. Though not the tallest waterfall, its wide, milky flow and surrounding landscape make it a must-see spot for nature lovers exploring the Golden Circle or South Coast. Accessible from route 26 between Selfoss and Hella, it's worth the drive for a peaceful break and some Instagram-worthy snaps.
