Secondo una leggenda, il primo vichingo ad essersi stabilito nella zona, Þrasi Þórólfsson, nascose un tesoro, un forziere ricolmo di monete d'oro, nella caverna dietro la cascata. Quando il sole colpisce coi suoi raggi l'acqua, c'è chi dice abbia visto il riflesso dorato delle monete. In molti hanno cercato il tesoro, un ragazzo ebbe successo, trovò il forziere e, attaccando una corda ad uno degli anelli laterali, iniziò a tirare, ma l'anello si ruppe e il forziere affondò. L'anello d'argento con incisioni runiche fu in seguito usato come maniglia del portale della chiesa di Skógar e può essere oggi ammirato al museo. Alla grandiosa Skógafoss, depositaria del segreto di Þrasi, è attribuito anche un potere magico: si dice che chiunque si bagni nelle sue acque possa ritrovare un oggetto perduto e a lungo cercato.
