Þórsmörk valley is an incredibly beautiful mountain ridge in the heart of South Iceland, located between three glaciers; Eyjafjallajökull, Mýrdalsjökull and Tindfjallajökull.
Þórsmörk – The valleys of Þórsmörk, Húsadalur, Langidalur and Básar, are popular destinations for many travelers, not least among the local population.
Þórsmörk is also the start or finish of two of Iceland’s most popular hiking trails, Laugavegur (to Landmannalaugar) and Fimmvörðuháls (to Skógar). Laugavegur is a 3-4 day hike while Fimmvörðuháls is a day trip, 2 days if you want to take your time.
If you prefer shorter hikes in the untouched wilderness, Þórsmörk has serval marked trails that suits everyone.
Langidalur is the end or the start point of the popular Laugavegur trekking trail. Básar is to the south of Krossá – with the imposing Eyjafjalla- and Mýrdalsjökull glaciers in its back garden.
Básar give access to the 1000 meter tall Fimmvörðuháls trek over to hamlet Skógar to the south. Both areas count as wonderland for hikers, with endless trails and routes.
Icelandic highland roads are often dirt tracks or gravel roads and can be quite tricky to navigate. The road to Þórsmörk is especially difficult due to the powerful glacial river that needs to be crossed and difficult road conditions and is not accessible to normal vehicles. Southcoast Adventure operates specialized highland Super Jeeps with professional drivers that navigate these roads with ease and comfort.
