The red and black cliffside of Hengifoss makes you feel as if you are on Mars.

Rjúkandi, also known as Rjúkandafoss, is the twelfth tallest waterfall in Iceland. Rjúkandi contains multiple drops, but collectively it reaches 305 ft (93 m). Its impressive height makes it hard to miss, but it’s also one of the few significant waterfalls that can be seen directly off the northern portion of the Ring Road (Route 1). However, Rjúkandi doesn’t receive many visitors.

Hidden away in the Eastern Region is Strútsfoss, Iceland’s third tallest waterfall. Strútsfoss is also known for its distinct red and gray layers on the cliffs.
