The family at Syðra-Skörðugil have a long history of living and farming on our land. We are sheep and horse farmers. We are a family of 5. Me , my husband and three daughters.
Syðra-Skörðugil is very well located in the heart of Skagafjörður. From here there are only 5 km to Varmahlíð which is the nearest village. There you can find a swimming pool, camping area, gas station, food and etc. In the area there are all kinds of activities and on the farm we have a horse rental for those who are interested in riding.
