The Snowy Cloak of Aldeyjarfoss

Arguably the most beautiful and impressive waterfall in Iceland, Aldeyjarfoss is even more impressive in its frozen winter clothing, and this image doesn’t begin to do it justice. In winter, it is reachable only by super jeeps, but getting there was definitely worth the hardship.

The 20-meter-high waterfall is part of the river Skjálfandafljót, and is famous for its hexagonal basalt columns, belonging to the Suðurárhraun lava field.
We will be visiting Aldeyjarfoss on a wild super-jeep ride during my upcoming ‘Winter Paradise’ workshop.
