Description
Iceland : black and white photograph of Fagrifoss waterfall near the Lakagígar region.
Fagrifoss is waterfall situated near the Lakagígar region. It is located along the 4x4 road F206 approximately 24 km (15 mi) from Kirkjubæjarklaustur and 40 km (25 mi) from Laki. Access to the waterfall requires the crossing of a river ford, for which a 4x4 vehicle is needed. Fagrifoss means “Beautiful Falls” in Icelandic. Adding to its scenic allure is how it contrasts with the rugged and desolate scenery the falls is nestled in.
Laki, or Lakagígar (the Craters of Laki) is a volcanic fissure in the western part of Vatnajökull National Park, not far from the volcanic fissure of Eldgjá and the small village of Kirkjubæjarklaustur. The fissure is properly referred to as Lakagígar, while Laki is a mountain that the fissure bisects. Lakagígar is part of a volcanic system centered on the volcano Grímsvötn and including the volcano Thordarhyrna. It lies between the glaciers of Mýrdalsjökull and Vatnajökull, in an area of fissures that run in a southwest to northeast direction.
