Litlanesfoss

Litlanesfoss is located halfway up the hillside, roughly midway to Hengifoss. It is not particularly tall, about 25-30 meters, but it is surrounded by an exceptionally beautiful columnar basalt formation with unusually tall columns. It has been compared to a wide, tall choir, with the straight columns reminiscent of the pipes of an organ. Below Litlanesfoss is also a series of sedimentary layers.
