Land of fire and ice
Goðafoss is one of the hundreds of show-stopping waterfalls Iceland is blessed with. And though it isn’t the island's highest waterfall — that would be Morsarfoss at over 240 meters — or most powerful (the thundering Dettifoss), Goðafoss has within its swirling waters, its own story to tell.
