Háifoss

Háifoss (Icelandic pronunciation: [ˈhauːɪˌfɔsː] ⓘ) is a waterfall situated near the volcano Hekla in southern Iceland.

[1] The river Fossá, a tributary of Þjórsá, drops here from a height of 122 m. This is the fourth highest waterfall of the island, after Morsárfoss, Glymur and Hengifoss.

[2] From the historical farm Þjóðveldisbærinn Stöng, which was destroyed by a volcanic eruption of Hekla in the Middle Ages and reconstructed, it is possible to hike to the waterfall along the Fossá (5 to 6 hours both directions).

Above the waterfall, there is also a parking lot, to allow hiking to be done in the other direction.
