Víðimýri is an estate in Skagafjörður, Iceland south of Varmahlíð, which overlooks it. The area was previously a part of Seyluhreppur. The estate used to be a manor and was, at the end of the 12th century and during the 13th century, the residence of the region's chieftains from the Ásbirningar family clan, from Kolbeinn Tumason to Kálfur, the son of Brandur Kolbeinsson, who was known to live there in 1262. By the 17th and 18th centuries, the estate had long been the residence of the local sheriff. Víðimýri has now been divided into eight or nine independent holdings.
