One of the stops on the Golden Circle Tour the Dear Wonderful Hubby and I went on in Iceland was the Gullfoss, a beautiful waterfall near Reykjavík.
There is a great viewing platform really close to the parking lot. (This is where we took first photo on this post.)
If you want to get super close to the waterfall, there’s an easy trek down to it. We got a bit wet on this trek but dried off quickly in the wind.
I loved how the Hvítá river has carved huge crevices in the rock. Water is SUCH a powerful force.
