일정 설명
By the trail you will find signs with information about Gullfoss, as well as the area's geology and history. The trail of Sigríður is dedicated to the memory of Sigríður Tómasdóttir in Brattholt, and her heroic struggle for the con servation of Gullfoss.
WHERE DOES THE NAME GULLFOSS COME FROM?
It is likely that Gullfoss was given its name because of the golden evening hue which often colours its glacial water. Another theory is that the name was inspired by the rainbow which often appears when sunshine hits the water-spray thrown up by the waterfall.
Another theory about the name can be found in the Sveinn Pálsson's travel journal. Once upon a time. a farmer named Gýgur lived at Gýgjarhóll. He had plenty of gold and could not bear the thought of someone else possessing it after his lifetime. To prevent this, he placed the gold in a coffer and threw it into the waterfall - which ever since has been named Gullfoss.
