Canyon Cascade

There are some lovely and quite famous valleys in southern #Iceland, this one is unusual because the entrance is blocked by a large, dome-shaped rock.
Stjórnargljúfur (𝙎𝙩𝙮𝙖𝙬𝙣-𝘢𝘳𝘳-𝘨𝘭𝘺𝘰𝘰-𝘷𝘳𝘳) gulley also contains a river and its waters cascade beautifully over this block.

Forked Tongue

October: Hjálparfoss in its autumn colours.

Literally the "Help Waterfall" because travelling by horse across the Highlands via Sprengisandur was long and difficult, and this was one of the first vegetated areas they reached to water and graze their horses.

The geology surrounding the falls is fascinating, the eruptions of nearby Hekla have left beautifully twisted basalt columns all around.

A slightly different viewpoint today, this is the top of Goðafoss waterfall in Þingeyjarsveit, north-eastern #Iceland. Water from the Skjálfandafljót river falls from a height of ≈ 12m (40ft) over a width of ≈ 30m (100ft) in four separate drops.

This is a view from the west bank, overlooking the crest of all four.
