Waterfall

Message from Ragga Ragnars

Goðafoss Waterfall, also known as the "Waterfall of the Gods," is a stunning natural wonder located in northeastern Iceland. With a width of about 100 feet and a drop of 39 feet into a tranquil pool, it's a sight to behold. Legend has it that the waterfall got its name from a pivotal moment in Iceland's history when an old Norse priest threw idols of the gods into the falls. Surrounded by other attractions like Lake Mývatn and Dettifoss Waterfall, Goðafoss is a must-visit spot for nature lovers and history buffs alike.
