Message from Sarah and Cédric

Hengifoss is a picturesque waterfall located in eastern Iceland, known for its unique geological features and stunning beauty. The waterfall drops over a 118-meter high cliff, with distinctive red layers of volcanic rock visible in the surrounding cliffs. Hengifoss is surrounded by breathtaking scenery, including mountains and canyons, and visitors can enjoy hiking trails that offer stunning views of the waterfall and its surroundings. The area is also home to several other waterfalls, including Litlanesfoss with its distinctive basalt columns, making it a popular destination for nature lovers and photographers.
