![]() ![]() ![]() If you are visiting Dettifoss, be sure not to miss this beautiful waterfall. And of course, the visit is only a half hour hike from Dettifoss, and both waterfalls share the same parking lots on the east and west sides. What is obviously interesting is the sense of gentleness of Selfoss alongside the might and power of Dettifoss. This is the first of the waterfall trio Selfoss. It is an interesting comparison to Dettifoss as both waterfalls always have the same volume of water, although the height of Selfoss is only 10 meters or 32 feet its width, however, is more than that of Dettifoss. Selfoss is a 11 meters tall, indented waterfall on the Jkuls Fjllum river in north east Iceland. Although Selfoss has always stood in the shadow of Dettifoss, it is as beautiful a construction of nature and equally as interesting to visit. Besides both waterfalls, part of the many fascinating natural wonders in the Jökulsárgljúfur canyon is the river Jökulsá á fjöllum, translated as “the glacial river in the mountains,” the 200-kilometer or 124-mile river that feeds the waterfalls and originates in the large Vatnajökull ice cap. For the best experience, you can view Dettifoss and Selfoss from the east and west riverbanks. Each side offers a slightly different experience. There are viewpoints of Dettifoss and Selfoss from the east and west sides of the river. The Selfoss waterfall is located in the Jökulsárgljúfur canyon in the northern region of Iceland, only one kilometer south of the mighty waterfall Dettifoss. Selfoss is a smaller but more elegant waterfall located just upriver. ![]()
