Located on the outskirts of Kirkjubæjarklaustur Iceland, flanked by rugged volcanic hills, flows the scenic Stjórnarfoss Waterfall. The falls consist of a cascading river which rumbles 40-feet down an inclined ramp of volcanic rock, followed by a 38-foot drop that plunges over a ledge of basalt rock into a beautiful blue pool.
With a drop of only 12 feet, Urriðafoss is not as an impressive site compared to some of Iceland's other waterfalls. It is however, one of the largest waterfalls by volume, as the falls stretches across an expanse Iceland's longest river, the Þjórsá.
