Vikings are also called Scandinavians, and they all believe or once believed in Norse mythology, which is also called Norse paganism.
Their gods include Odin, Thor, Loki and Freyja to name a few. Their afterlife is composed of various places to go, such as Valhalla if you died bravely in battle, but the most common place to go was hel.
It should be noted that the form of religion vikings followed was not Asatru, as it a reconstructed religion and not the original.
It should also be noted that Asatru, though it may be a reconstructed religion, is the common name that contemporary followers of the "Viking Religion" call themselves.
