Hraunfossar - Iceland

ykarelic4 (Premium member) > albums > Waterfalls Around The World II

Album Info:

The waterfalls Hraunfossar of the river Hvítá (Borgarfjörður) in the west of Iceland seem to come out directly of a lava field, the Hallmundarhraun which was caused by an eruption of one of the volcanoes lying under the glacier Langjökull. Hence the name, hraun meaning lava in Icelandic. There are a lot of rivulets streaming out of the lava at a length of about 900 meters. The Hraunfossar are situated near Húsafell and Reykholt in the west of the island.

  • The color of the water makes it look warm. I would love to sit on one of the rocks and let the water flow around me. That is, if the water is warm!!

  • Yes, Maria is right, this is a wonderful water show, those rivulets are dancing so graceful.. the soft blue of the river made me think that the water is very cold, but I`m not sure.. Thank you for this very beautiful picture!
