View from the top of the waterfall #iceland #systrafoss #waterfall #sunshine
I wanted to find this waterfall as its only a few minutes off from the main roundabout in the town Kirkjubaejarklaustur. Followed signs and hit a dead end. Turned around thinking we wouldn't find it and boom, there it was on the side of the road. I drove right past ofthe first time. Definitely pays to keep your eyes open in Iceland and if you proves if you take the same road both ways, how different you may see things!
