The Black Falls






Svartifoss (Black Falls) is in the large Skaftafell National Park.
The hexagonal shape of the basalt is a result of how the lava cooled.
Skaftafell National Park also includes some of Vatnajokull, the biggest glacier in Europe. We hiked up but the fog came down and we didn't see nothing!
