The Field of Thor

Þórsmörk (Thor’s field or forest) is a magical lush oasis surrounded by glaciers, glacier tongues and the awesome highlands. It is a favourite among nature-loving Icelanders (i.e. all Icelanders) and a place of such diverse and magnificent beauty that no number of adjectives can do it justice. We’re just telling it like it is.

The Greatest Hiking Trails in Iceland

Þórsmörk isn’t just famous for its unique beauty. It 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 and drink in the surroundings. If you prefer shorter hikes or easy strolls in the untouched wilderness, Þórsmörk has numerous marked trails to suit all walkabout tastes. Or you could simply hang out with your BBQ and let your eyes drink it all in. Whatever you do, give yourself time to enjoy the glory of Þórsmörk. 

The Highland Bus

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. Reykjavik Excursions operates specialized highland buses with professional drivers that navigate these roads with ease and comfort. The Highland Bus runs daily between Reykjavik and Skógar/Þórsmörk/Landmannalaugar to serve the nature-loving hikers and travellers that frequent these parts.
