What travelers say:

The Golden Falls (Gullfoss) is located 125 kilometers northeast of Reykjavik, Iceland. It is 2,500 meters wide and 70 meters high. It is the largest fault canyon waterfall in Iceland. The Ta River forms two waterfalls here. The river below becomes narrower to rapids. After watching the Gaiser Geyser, it will be just right. The Golden Falls was the first waterfall I saw on this trip in Iceland and the week after that I would see almost every day like the church square in Central and Eastern Europe until the aesthetic fatigue said back to the Golden Falls. Under Icelandic law, the land is privately owned, so this waterfall originally belongs to a private attraction haha Does it sound a little strange? In 1975, the owner of the farm gave it to the Icelandic government as a natural reserve, and we have the freedom of access today. This waterfall is not the largest, but the water flow is abundant, and the geographical space is very large. The wind is particularly large. The splash is filled with water. You can feel it far away, so it still has some impact when taking pictures.
