💦 Hengifoss, Iceland 🇮🇸
Hengifoss is located in eastern Iceland and stands about 128 meters high, making it one of the country’s tallest waterfalls.
🪨 The canyon walls are especially unusual. Thin reddish layers can be seen between the basalt, formed from ancient soils during periods when volcanic eruptions were interrupted by warmer, calmer conditions.
🥾 A hiking trail of about 2.5 km leads to the waterfall. Along the way, you can also see Litlanesfoss, surrounded by spectacular basalt columns.
