Day five - Bjarnarfoss

Bjarnafoss or Bjarnarfoss is a really nice waterfall on Snæfellsnes peninsula in the west of Iceland. From the 566 meter high Mælifell mountain the river Bjarnaá drops down over 80 meters in the Dritvíkurgrunn and ends in the sea. Bjarna means bear.

Bjarnafoss falls down from a basalt cliff created by the neighbouring volcano Mælifell and lies in the middle of the Búðahraun lava fields. At some parts of the fall you still can see the basalt columns.
