Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Thorsmork?
The best area to stay in Thorsmork is generally near the main huts and campsites, particularly around Langidalur and Básar, as these offer the most convenient access to hiking trails and facilities.

Langidalur is a popular choice for its central location within Thorsmork valley, situated by the Krossá river. It features a large hut and campsite, offering basic amenities and a base for exploring. From here, you can easily access trails leading up to Valahnúkur for panoramic views or embark on longer hikes into the surrounding mountains. It's a great spot for hikers and those who appreciate being right in the heart of the natural landscape.

Básar is another excellent option, located on the other side of the Krossá river, accessible via a footbridge from Langidalur. This area also has a hut and campsite and is particularly well-suited for those looking to hike the Fimmvörðuháls trail, as it's the starting or end point for this renowned route.
When is the best time to go to Thorsmork?
The best time to visit Thorsmork is during the summer months, specifically from mid-June to mid-September, when the F-roads are open and the weather is at its most favourable.

This period is ideal for hikers and outdoor enthusiasts. The snow has melted, revealing the full extent of the valleys, glaciers, and volcanic landscapes. You'll find the widest range of guided tours and bus services available, making access to this remote region much easier. The longer daylight hours also mean more time to explore trails like the Fimmvörðuháls hike.
