Cliffs are ancient costal cliffs which were formed by marine erosion at the end of last ice age. Legend said a settler named Parsi hid his chest of gold behind the waterfall where no one could reach. 3 men from Skogar frond it and attempted to move by placing a hook into the ring. It broke loose the ring and was later put in a museum in Skogar.
