Gufufoss
 Gufufoss is the largest and most striking waterfall in Seyðisfjörður (roughly 3.5km from town). It plunges on a river full of smaller but powerful waterfalls as it makes it way down alongside the road from the mountains to the fjord itself. There was lots of construction activity when we were there so we're not sure if it's for avalanche protection or if its for more hydroelectricity (which might jeopardize this waterfall). We had some trouble finding a suitable car park for the falls given all the construction chaos, lack of pullout shoulders, and local traffic. In any case, this waterfall is indeed beautiful, but we had a difficult time photographing in the evening as the sun was still high enough to be right in our eyes as we looked to the falls. Tell us about your experience with this waterfall.
