View of the 32 m (105 ft) high and 20 m (60 ft) wide crevice of the Gullfoss waterfall located in Suðurland, Iceland. The crevice extends perpendicular to the flow of the river and is 2.5 km long. The average amount of water running over this waterfall is 140 m3/s in the summertime, but up to 2000 m3/s have been measured. Together with Þingvellir and the geysers of Haukadalur, Gullfoss forms the Golden Circle, the most popular touristic attraction in Iceland.
