The Aldeyjarfoss waterfall is situated in the north of Iceland at the northern part of the Sprengisandur Highland Road which means it is to be found within the Highlands of Iceland. One of the most interesting features of the waterfall is the contrast between the black basalt columns and the white waters of the fall. In this, it is similar to the much smaller Icelandic waterfall Svartifoss in Skaftafell. The river Skjálfandafljót drops here from a height of 20 m. The basalt belongs to a lava field called ''Frambruni'' or ''Suðurárhraun'', ''hraun'' being the Icelandic designation for lava. ==See also== *Waterfalls of Iceland *Volcanism in Iceland *List of waterfalls *Geography of Iceland 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Aldeyjarfoss」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
