Reykjavik & The Golden Circle
29 Haziran 2022, İzlanda ⋅ ⛅ 63 °F
We began our Golden Circle tour with a drive across the Mosfellsheidi Heath to Þingvellir (Thingvellir) National Park -- a UNESCO World Heritage Site. A massive geological fault runs through the location where the Icelandic Althing (parliament), was established in AD 930. Icelandic chieftains convened here each summer for nearly eight centuries. Our next stop was the Geysir Geothermal Area where we witnessed an active geyser erupting. The highlight of the day was Gullfoss, a massive two-tiered waterfall fed by runoff from Langjökull glacier in the Icelandic highlands. We also made a short stop at one of Iceland's largest geothermal energy plants that supplies both electricity and hot water to Reykjavik and surrounding communities. We enjoyed another beautiful and unusually sunny day in Iceland.Okumaya devam et

At the end of the journey, this is what we discovered, an awesome waterfall that upon approach looked like one of the geothermal areas with the amount of mist in the air. A brief layover though as we had an appointment to make…Okumaya devam et

Fly pollination

Today I learned that Garden Angelica is pollinated by flies.

And see that bee? He’s eating the flies!!!

Where’s Sir David Attenborough when you need him? (This is right by Gullfoss in Iceland.)

Na endlich mal ein Wasserfall. Dank des schönen Wetters sind weder Regenhose noch Regenjacke notwendig. Die paar Tropfen trocknen schnell wieder. Da wir noch auf die Raftingleute warten müssen, gönnen wir uns noch einen Kakao.Okumaya devam et

Reykjavik - Day 6 - Gullfoss Falls
8 Kasım 2022, İzlanda ⋅ ⛅ 41 °F
Watch the video to see the two tiered effects of this beautiful waterfall.

Gullfoss Waterfall: the most popular waterfall in Iceland. Gullfoss is considered by many to be one of the most beautiful in Iceland and is one of the largest. The falls plunge 32 meters over two tiers into the Hvita River below.

Icelanders are very eco conscious (even before the current crisis) and are concerned about the ever increasing effects of both hydropower and geothermal power used to power heavy industry on the Icelandic landscape, river and waterfalls. For this reason the Gullfoss waterfall has special meaning.

In the last century there were plans to dam the Hvítá river to generate electricity but those plans were fiercely opposed by the local woman Sigridur Tomasdottir (1871 – 1957) who lived on the farm of Brattholt just nearby. In her early adulthood she made her living partly by guiding travelers to the waterfall that, at that time, was practically in the middle of nowhere. Her herculean efforts to oppose any plans to use Hvítá or Gullfoss to generate electricity earned her the distinction of being a pioneer of environmentalism in Iceland. Today, tens of thousands of people experience the majesty of Gullfoss waterfall. Sigridur would surely approve, even though the relief plaque (see photo) indicates a stern demeanor.

COUPLE OF OTHER WATERFALL NOTES:
Gullfoss – or “Golden falls” may be the best known Icelandic waterfall, but it is not as powerful as Dettifoss in the north or as high as Glymur in the south-west.Okumaya devam et

Reykjavik -Day 8- Solheimajokull Glacier
10 Kasım 2022, İzlanda ⋅ 🌧 39 °F
Next up on the South Tour is the Sólheimajökull Glacier.

Sólheimajökull is an outlet glacier of the larger Mýrdalsjökull ice cap which lies atop the Katla caldera. The glacier is melting rapidly owing to warmer annual temperatures due to climate change. It is possible that many of the country's glaciers will become extinct within the next century.

The small icebergs that have broken off of the glacier lie in a pool at it’s base. The blue is quite beautiful. This is called a moving glacier which means it is still growing. However, with climate change and global warming this may cease and it may start receding.Okumaya devam et

Gullfoss Falls
11 Ocak 2023, İzlanda ⋅ 🌙 -6 °C
Nachdem unser Adrenalinspiegel ordentlich in die Höhe getrieben wurde, hieß es erst einmal cool down bei den Gullfoss Wasserfällen. Es war sehr windig, was zugleich bedeutet, dass es gefühlt minus 15 Gad für uns waren 🥶🤣. Rote Wängchen ahoi.

Leider kommt das ein oder andere Naturspektakel auf Bildern überhaupt nicht so rüber wie es in Wirklichkeit ist. Ich vertraue hier einfach mal auf euer Vorstellungsvermögen 😉.

Memo:
Der Gullfoss (der "goldene Wasserfall") ist einer der ikonischsten und beliebtesten Wasserfälle Islands und befindet sich in der Schlucht des Flusses Hvítá im Südwesten Islands.
Das Wasser des Hvítá-Flusses entspringt vom Gletscher Langjökull, bevor es in einer dramatischen Präsentation der rohen Kraft der Natur 32 Meter tief über die beiden Stufen des Gullfoss hinunterstürzt. Diese unglaubliche Stätte wird von den meisten Reisenden besichtigt, da sie sich auf der Besichtigungsroute des Goldenen Kreises befindet.
Aufgrund der zwei Stufen des Wasserfalls sollte der Gullfoss eigentlich als zwei getrennte Elemente betrachtet werden. Die erste, kürzere Kaskade ist 11 Meter hoch, während der zweite Sturz 21 Meter beträgt. Die Schluchtwände auf beiden Seiten des Wasserfalls erreichen eine Höhe von bis zu 70 Metern und führen in den großen Gullfossgjúfur-Canyon hinab. Geologen glauben, dass dieser Canyon durch Gletscherschmelzen zu Beginn der letzten Eiszeit entstanden ist.

Der Goldene Wasserfall ist nicht gülden an diesem Nachmittag, die Wolken dämpfen das Licht, der Geräuschpegel ist schwer zu beschreiben.

Ganz nah an der Abrisskante volle Gischt und die Wiesen sind wassergetränkt wie in einem Sumpfgebiet, ich komme mir vor wie unter Wasser.Okumaya devam et

als letzten Tagespunkt vor unserer Ankunft an den Horizons wählten wir den Gullfoss aus. der Gullfoss ist ein zweistufiger Wasserfall des Flusses Hvítá,der die Provinzen Hrunamannahreppur und Bláskógabyggð voneinander trennt.tief ins Erdreich frisst sich das Flussbett nach dem tiefen Sturz ins Erdreich und fließt Richtung Meer

hier wurden wir nicht nur von oben Nass 🙃Okumaya devam et
