Skaftafell National Park is located in the southern part of Iceland, encompassing a large portion of the giant Vatnajökull ice sheet and some of the surrounding low lands. Most of the park is only accessible by difficult treks on foot over tundra and ice. A system of trails does lead to some interesting features in the low lands near the main entrance. This is a photo of a rather well-known waterfall in the park called Svartifoss (meaning "Black Falls"). The water pours dramatically over a lip of columnar basalt.
