The Kolufossar are three waterfalls in northwest Iceland .

The river Víðidalsá eroded the Kolugil gorge and falls here over the three waterfalls Efrifoss ("Upper Waterfall"), Kolufoss ("Waterfall of the Kola") and Neðri-Kolufoss ("Lower Waterfall of the Kola"). Below the upper waterfall there is the bridge of a local side road. From here you can see the waterfall to the south and the gorge on the other side. You can reach these waterfalls via the Víðidalsvegur (road 715), which branches off the ring road.
