Above Hraunfossar (lava falls) there is the famous waterfall called Barnafoss (children´s fall). According to legend Barnafoss takes its name from two children who fell into the waterfall. The story is something like this: long time ago there was a widow living on a farm nearby with her two young children.
One day the widow went to a Christmas service but left her children at home. When the widow came back from the evening service her children had disappeared. People went searching and found their footsteps leading to the stone arch over the river. Their mother had the arch destroyed promising that no one would ever cross the falls alive again.
