Skogafoss Waterfalls Hike

The Skogafoss waterfall is an iconic tourist destination, especially with the powerful waterfall so close to the road. I still went on the ~ 6 mile round-trip hike to enjoy the sights and see the other waterfalls.

After the Skogafoss hike, I drove south to Vik, the famous black sand beach of Iceland, and viewed Dyrhólaey and the coast.
