Description
As the water tumbles over Gullfoss (Golden Falls) in Iceland, it is carried away in a narrow misty canyon with walls up to 70 metres high.
This spectacularly scenic waterfall was almost lost to hydroelectric development in the early 1900s. It was saved by the tenacity of the owner's daughter who fought the project in court, becoming Iceland's first environmentalist in the process.
