Our opinion:<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, Skogafoss is definitely worth a visit in winter.  <br\/>Despite the cold temperatures, the 60-metre waterfall doesn&#8217;t freeze thanks to its powerful flow, creating a striking contrast with the surrounding snow and ice. It&#8217;s easily accessible from the Ring Road and, in our opinion, looks even more spectacular with a snowy backdrop.<br\/>It&#8217;s one of the <a

class=\"wp-block-heading\">Best time to visit, opening hours and prices<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Access to the waterfall is free, as is free parking.<br\/>It&#8217;s open all day and all night.<br\/>There&#8217;s no better time to visit in terms of light. The waterfall faces south.<br\/>However, if you climb up to the platform, the view is to the west.<br\/>It&#8217;s a very popular spot, so it&#8217;s busier during the day.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Length of visit and main difficulties<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Allow at least 30min to admire the waterfall from below and get close to it.<br\/>And plan a 1-hour stop if you also want to go up to the platform and explore a bit more.<br\/>Access to the waterfall is flat, but to get to the upper platform, the staircase is quite steep and difficult for people with vertigo.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Be careful, with snow and ice on the ground, it can be slippery. We recommend you always carry cleats with you to add to your shoes.  <a href=\"https:\/\/iceland-lovers.com\/en\/what-to-bring-iceland-winter-our-complete-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer

class=\"wp-block-heading\">Frequently asked questions<\/h2>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Does the Skogafoss waterfall freeze over in winter?<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. Despite the wintry temperatures, the strong flow of the Sk\u00f3g\u00e1 River that feeds the waterfall prevents it from freezing over completely.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is Skogafoss more beautiful in summer or winter?<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The water curtain is impressive all year round.<br\/>However, we prefer to admire it in winter, with the contrast of black and white. The fall looks even more impressive!<br\/>We&#8217;ll soon be sharing our article on Skogafoss in summer.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can you walk behind Skogafoss in winter?<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No, whether in summer or winter, you can&#8217;t walk behind Skogafoss. The path behind a waterfall is at <a href=\"https:\/\/iceland-lovers.com\/en\/waterfall-seljalandsfoss-winter\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Seljalandsfoss<\/a>, but is closed in winter.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Are there any legends associated with Skogafoss?<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2 legends surround Skogafoss:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A Viking treasure, a chest filled with gold, is said to be hidden behind the waterfall.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>One of the rocks is said to represent a troll with a baby on his shoulders, turned to stone by the sun&#8217;s rays while admiring the waterfall.
