Situated at the foot of the impressive Eyjafjöll mountain range is Skógafoss, a magnificent 60-metre high waterfall where, according to legend, the first Viking settler in the area hid a treasure in a cave hidden behind the waterfall. This is also one of Iceland's most photogenic landmarks. Since the waterfall produces a lot of mist, rainbows are a common sight on sunny days. Nearby is the Skógar Folk Museum, which has a variety of interesting artefacts, including an original peat-roofed farmhouse, showing how people lived hundreds of years ago.
