When driving to Básar a left turn is taken from Road 1 east of Markarfljót river into road 249, which by the farm Stóra-Mörk changes to F249. This road leads all the way to Básar. Please note that there are some unbridged glacial rivers on the way which have to be crossed. Only well equipped jeeps and larger vehicles are able to cross the rivers. These rivers can be dangerous, so make sure to get information about their condition before driving to Básar.
