Message from Olga Kuzmenko
Gluggafoss, also known as Merkjárfoss, is a stunning waterfall on the Merkjá River in South Iceland. Its unique feature is the "windows" formed in the rock by the river, giving it its name. Over time, the waterfall has changed due to the soft rock composition and volcanic activity in the area.
