Fosshóll

Fosshóll, a farm since 1930 and a trading place. Fosshóll is a small commerce community at Goðafoss waterfall. There one can find a shop, a gas station, a restaurant, a handcrafts market and an accommodations.

This is a nice spot to stop while travelling on the highway, observe Goðafoss in the Skjálf­andi River and enjoy the scenery at Ljósavatnsskarð Passage where there are several historical sites, such as Ljósavatn Lake and Þorgeirs­kirkja, but this church is named after Þorgeir goði, who was the one who decided that Icelanders should switch from being heathens and become Christians.
