Sigöldufoss

South Coast, Iceland

About

Sigöldufoss is a waterfall in Iceland's South Coast.

Across a total width of about 30 metres, it drops 10 metres, and it is fed by the river Tungnaá. The water often appears turquoise-blue. Sigöldufoss can only be seen properly when water is released from the upstream reservoir Sigöldulón.
