- It blows my mind that hundreds of thousands of people visit Iceland's iconic Skogafoss waterfall every year but have no idea what is hidden just beyond it. Learn about the epic nature waiting for you in this video.
To enjoy this adventure to the fullest, I suggest taking your time while here. Renting a car in Iceland allows you to go at your own pace. I highly recommend Go Car Rental Iceland. They have great rates, a large variety of cars, and amazing customer service.

I added this to my plan for my May 2024 Iceland trip!
🥳🥳🥳
This was such a memorable place when I visited back in April! Freya Cafe has fantastic food and the museum has alot of great history to peruse.
So lovely to hear that you enjoyed the waterfall and Freya Cafe too. Yes, the museum is fascinating.
Looks so beautiful. I enjoy your videos. The landscapes are gorgeous. One day I'll make it to Iceland.
So glad you enjoy my videos. I hope you do visit in the future. 🤗
Visited in February.....the steps were closed, but definitely coming back!!!
im so happy to discover new things in Iceland, my credo: always take your time and be curious ( and good trousers)
Agreed. 😊

We’re so excited to go. Thank you for all your touring assist! It is so worth it!
I’m excited for you!! My pleasure and have a lovely time.
What an incredible gorgeous treat!! Thanks for sharing!!
My absolute pleasure 🤗
@@AllThingsIceland Have been subbed for a while...Do you conduct tours?
For a minute I thought you were going to take us behind the waterfall itself. 🤪
😂😂 There us folklore about treasure being hidden behind the waterfall but I don’t believe it. Plus, it’s way too dangerous to try and find.
Did this hike last year and it was beautiful!
Yay!! So glad to hear that it. 🤗🥳 Thank you for sharing.
So breathtaking, thank you so much for sharing those views
My absolute pleasure and thank you for watching 🤗
Enjoyed your energy on the hike. Nice!
Thank you 🤗❤️ Hiking makes me happy. 😂
@@AllThingsIceland Tell me, have you seen any little people? ha ha. Have you done a video on that subject? I found Icelanders' fascination with the little people fascinating.
Thank you for this video! Stunning. Do you think this hike would be generally accessible at the very beginning of October?
We went all the way to the top! Now I know we should’ve hiked further! Next time!
Yay for going to the top! I hope you get to see lots more next time you go.
And you have a beautiful voice!!!
Thank you 🤗❤️
Loved Skogafoss!!! Filet like I was walking into the heart of Niagara Falls.. Totally thrilling ❤️!
So awesome to hear. It’s such a gorgeous waterfall. 🤗❤️
That all looks stunning! Thanks for sharing!
My pleasure 🤗
Omg, we seriously was there yesterday and also freya cafe ! Amazing if I was to bumb into you, we are vacationing/honeymooning from Hawaii
Awesome!!! I hope you are having a wonderful time.
@@AllThingsIceland jewelZ, it is like a whole different planet here, we understand why you fell in love with this place, we already are playing with the idea of possibly living here, it is so mysterious yet, utterly breathtaking
Skogafoss is amazing as it is, but this really amps it up. I hope to add this to the next visit to Iceland. Thanks!
Yay!! I hope you do too.
I was at the falls in Aug. but on a South Coast tour. We did not have time to walk that far. Next time!
Do you do your own drone work? You have beautiful views.
Thanks for all of the videos. They helped me make the most out of my short, 2.5 days there.
Yes, I hope you get it enjoy as much of it as you want next time. I do my own drone work but the first drone shot is from stock footage because we are not allowed to fly drones right in front of Skógafoss.
😮 God creation in nature is so beautiful 😍
It really is!
Hello,
Thank you for sharing these beautiful views. Is there a fall season in Iceland? When does it start to get cold? How are you doing?
It’s my pleasure to share. Yes, there is a fall season in Iceland. It’s quite short but we get bursts of gorgeous colors. It’s getting a little chillier but not too bad.
I’m well. How are you?
We were there last June and went about 2 miles back, of course it wasn't as busy as we went about 8:00 at night. The trail gets pretty dicey the farther you go.
Yes, the farther you go the more you are going into the highlands, which has much tougher and intense terrain.
It is as wonderful as waterfall in my state in Biafra land
🥳🥳🥳
Your videos are amazing :) Thank you! I have a friend who recently traveled there. She said that professional bus drivers are needed. I am a professional bus driver with winter driving experience (Vail, CO). What are your thoughts on that?
Thank you and it’s my pleasure to share. I don’t have any insight on the need for professional bus drivers. Sorry I can’t be more of assistance in that area.
❤
🤗❤️
Thank you so very much I love waterfalls. ❤️
How many extra hours would it take or days if you did all the 26 waterfalls?
My pleasure. I’m not sure about the time because it’s been a couple of years since I have done the whole thing. It might be 3-4 hours.
@AllThingsIceland
So you could easily take your time and set and have lunch and, of course, definitely pack in everything. I love to go hiking, and I have my own little special method that I use to keep all trash from the environment. Call me weird, but I sometimes, depending on the hike, will bring some disposable gloves to pick up another crash as long as it wouldn't bring me harm.
I'm planning on visiting Iceland next summer if my budget allows it.
wanna go here during my trip next month, but looks scary to do it in winter :(
I understand that. If there is snow and ice I don’t recommend going that far on the path.
Awesome spot but I didn't know what I was missing by just staying at the bottom.
The bottom is lovely but beyond just the top is pretty epic. 😊 To be fair, this trail is not talked about a lot because most associate it with the Fimmvörðuháls hike into the highlands.
