Magnúsarfoss Waterfall is only about 10 meters high and can be a lovely addition to your visit to Skaftafell National Park. You can view it from a lookout terrace on the left bank, or you can make your way through the bushes on the right bank to find several spots with beautiful views of the waterfall.

You can find Magnúsarfoss in Skaftafell National Park by taking the hiking trail to its more famous counterpart, Svartifoss, approximately a 15-minute walk from the parking lot (or the campsite).
