Innri-Fellsfoss

Take Highway 1 east from the town of Hvolsvöllur for 47km, then turn left where signs point prominently to Skógafoss (the falls are visible and very obvious at this point). In half of a kilometer take the next left and follow the road to its end adjacent to the camping area. The trail to the top of the falls begins adjacent to the grass field at the camping area, climbing up several hundreds of stairs for about one-third of a kilometer to a viewing platform at the top of the falls. From here the trail uses a stile to cross a sheep fence, and then continues gradually uphill. This waterfall is best viewed about 1.75 kilometers past the top of Skógafoss, and about 150 meters past the bottom of Femri-Fellsfoss.The Skógá features dozens of waterfalls as it cascades down from the saddle between the Eyjafjallajökull and Katla volcanoes where it originates. The vast majority of visitors to the area are (understandably) satisfied with the spectacular Skógafoss just above the Ring road, but those looking for further satisfaction can hike the famous Laugavegur trail upstream along the river and pass many more waterfalls.
Innri-Fellsfoss is the sixth significant descent encountered as one hikes upstream from Skógafoss along the trail. The falls crash 39 feet in a broad block-shaped plunging fall which stretches over 100 feet across. This waterfall is perhaps most strikingly seen when viewed in tandem with Femri-Fellsfoss just downstream up the canyon, together stair-stepping down the dark volcanic bedrock and set amid what otherwise appears to be a pastoral setting.
