In Hraunfossar Barnafoss, Iceland, my personal aporeciación is gushing water from any rock.
Hraunfossar The word is a compound word which means Hraun is Lava and Foss waterfall.
Wikipedia enlightens us with this valuable information:
Hraunfossar (Borgar- western Iceland) is a series of waterfalls FORMED by rivulets streaming over a distance of 900 meters acerca out of the Hallmundarhraun to Lava flowed Which field from an eruption of one of the volcanoes lying under the glacier Langjökull. The waterfalls pour into the river from Hvítá of less porous rock ledges in the lava. The name comes from the Hraun Icelandic word for lava. The Hraunfossar are situated near Húsafell and Reykholt and Lava-tube cave Víðgelmir is close by.

Literally a stone's throw from upstream Hraunfossar, there is another waterfall called Barnafoss. Its name, the waterfall of the children, comes from an accident Which is Said To have taken place here in former times. There Was natural bridge over the waterfall and two children from a nearby farm Fell to Their Deaths crossing the river on the bridge. Afterwards, the grief-struck mother Had the bridge destroyed.
