Gluggafoss Waterfall (also called Merkjárfoss or Window Falls) is often overlooked by travellers. What makes Gluggafoss unique is its geology where the river has created several holes and tunnels in the soft palagonite bedrock, called "gluggars", through which the water finds its way. This beautiful waterfall plunges 44 meters into a plunge pool and then broadens up in the lower falls and plunges another 8.5 meters into the river Merkjá.
Gullfoss, also known as the Waterfalls of Gold, is one of the most popular and spectacular Waterfalls in all of Iceland. Captured here, looking down along the canyon edge, is the final 32 metres (105 ft) pluge down into the 20 metres (66 ft) wide and 2.5 kilometres (1.6 mi) long river canyon.
