Watch the sunlight bouncing off the water as it flows over Hraunfossar. Keep an eye out for any rainbows that form in the mist.

After you've seen all there is to see at this Borgarnes cascade of water, there are plenty of other things to keep you busy in the area. Many visitors head to Barnafoss next. It's not very far from Hraunfossar, so why not add it to your itinerary?

A lovely place to stay. The staff were amazing and couldn’t do enough for us (to the extent they even sorted a couple of Christmas items one of our party was looking for). Highly recommend.

This dome was perfect! Very clean which is the most important to me. It had all the essentials, extra blankets and the beds were comfortable. The host was super responsive and sent delivered more wood for us quickly. The town of Selfoss is 5-6 kilometers and has nice dining options. My family enjoyed our stay very much and will be coming back!

Adventurous hike up to this waterfall. The hike is called Glymur. We had to walk through knee high water, jump rocks, use ropes to climb up steep cliffs, cross multiple rivers, walk on side of cliffs using narrow pathways, and walk through slippery mountain sides. Well worth it and made it even more exciting of a hike. I would suggest going here when visiting Iceland. It's approximately 1 hour and a half from Reykjavik. I took this photo while I was sitting on the side of a cliff overlooking the waterfall. Birds were flying side to side to their nests. It was truely paradise. #glymur #iceland #paradise #hikes #adventure # travel
