The Wunderlust Travelers - Skógafoss Waterfall Iceland 2022 - 4k Drone

#drone #traveltheworld #iceland
Iceland was beautiful to behold in so many ways. When we visited there in March 2022, we weren't sure how the trip was going to go. We did lots of pre-planning and KZbin video watching with people like @icelandwithaview who gave us plenty of great ideas. When we were there, we saw all that we could see, depending on the weather, and just had a wonderful time. From seeing lots of gorgeous waterfalls to walking through an ice cave the base of a glacier, Iceland did not disappoint.
Skógafoss is one of the biggest waterfalls in Iceland, with a drop of some 60 meters and a width of 25 meters, and you can walk right up to, but be prepared to be drenched. Skogafoss is in the south of Iceland at the cliffs of the former coastline. After the coastline had receded seaward (it is now at a distance of about 5 kilometres (3.1 miles) from Skogar village), the former sea cliffs remained. Skogafoss is unique because the waterfall comes directly from two glaciers, Eyjafjallajokull and Myrdalsjokull.
There is even a legend that's associated to the falls. According to Iceland Travel's website, a Viking named Thrasi hid his hoarded gold under the falls. Many have tried to find the chest of gold and, as the story goes, a young man almost succeeded. He tied a rope to the chest handle ring and pulled. He only retrieved the ring and returned with it. The ring was later used for the church door at Skogar. (www.icelandtra...)

hello, congratulations, beautiful video, how did you fly over these waterfalls? Did you request permits or not? 

[@bartlettmastercrossfitathlete]

Thanks for your comment. I’m a registered drone pilot through the EU, and since Iceland is a drone friendly country, I was able to fly from the nearby parking lot and maintained VLOS throughout the flight.
