Bergárfoss

About

Bergárfoss is a waterfall in East Iceland.

31°N, 15.14°W. It is the eastern of two Icelandic waterfalls named Bergárfoss; the western one, on the Bergá stream, drops around 40 metres. Little else is formally documented about this fall, so treat it as an off-the-map stop rather than a headline sight.

Stand close enough and you'll feel the spray on your face. There's something primal about waterfalls - they demand your attention.

Most waterfalls don't have entrance fees, but parking often costs 700-1000 ISK. Keep coins handy or download the Parka app.
