Experience the mesmerizing beauty of one of Iceland's most celebrated waterfalls on this 2-hour adventure from Akureyri. This short day tour takes travelers to the mighty Godafoss waterfall to enjoy some of the finest sceneries the country has to offer.
The action begins with a pick up from Akureyri. You can arrange a pick-up from the Akureyri Airport, Akureyri Port, or your accommodation. You'll then ride a comfortable vehicle and head to North Iceland's countryside toward Godafoss waterfall.
Also known as the "Waterfall of the Gods," Godafoss waterfall is one of Iceland's attractions, representing natural beauty, rich history, and folklore. Godafoss waterfall is part of the Skjalfandafljot river, which originates from the Highlands of Iceland. Standing approximately 39 feet (12 meters) high and 100 feet (30 meters) wide, Godafoss cascades over a horseshoe-shaped cliff that will leave you amazed.
Godafoss waterfall is easily accessible. A short walk from the nearby parking area leads to several viewpoints. You can experience the thundering roar of the water and feel the mist from the well-maintained paths and viewing platforms.
When you visit during summer, you'll see the waterfall's turquoise hue contrasting with the surrounding greenery. Moreover, there's a chance you'll see rainbows forming by the mist, adding character to the majestic sight.
On the other hand, visiting Godafoss waterfall during winter is an entirely different experience. During winter, the cascading waters partially freeze, creating striking ice formations. Moreover, the surrounding landscape is blanketed in snow.
Snow-covered cliffs and icy boulders frame the waterfall, adding to the scene's dramatic appeal. In addition, the mist rising from the falls can crystallize in the cold air, forming delicate ice crystals that sparkle like diamonds. Though the walking paths in the area can be slippery, the effort is well worth the experience.
At the end of the tour, your driver will take you back to your meeting place in Akureyri.
