One of the most popular tourist attractions in Iceland, the Gullfoss is a
2-tiered waterfall with a total height of 32m (105ft). Also known as
the Golden Falls, the Gullfoss is part of the Hvítá river. Nearby
attractions include the Haukadalur geysers and Þingvellir national park.
Together, these 3 sites are called the Golden Circle. Because of the
popularity of the falls there is hotel accommodation nearby, but most
visitors opt to stay in Reykjavík and visit the falls on the Golden
Circle day trip.

Nice sharing friend. Your images are very beautiful. I like to visit historical and beautiful places. I visit in Gullfoss Waterfall before my mount rushmore tours. It is located in the Canyon of Hvítá River in southwest Iceland. Gullfoss is one of the most popular tourist attractions in the country. The wide Hvítá rushes southward. The waterfall was later sold to the state of Iceland. It is a nice place for visiting.
I visited the Gullfoss water fall last year just before my us west coast bus tours. There are vertical stairs up and down but I was able to discuss them with a bad knee. Gullfoss is actually two separate waterfalls; the upper one has a drop of 11 meters and the lower one 21 meters. It was gorgeous and definitely worth to visit.
