Vikings were Norse. Their religion is Asatru. As of my knowledge, four Gods in Asatru: Odin, Thor, Tyr and Freya. Freya is a Goddess.

The above is partially right. Their religion is what now a days is called Asatru, or Norse Reconstructionism. Of course its been slightly adapted to fit modern day society, but still works just fine.

There were MANY Gods and Goddesses, but for the most part, the common way of showing honor to the Gods was through blot, or sacrifice. Offerings would be made in a ritual setting, this usually concluded partying. Sacrifices were usually made in the form of a live pig, which would then be slaughtered, boiled into a stew, and eaten by everyone. The bones and whatnot would be burned. Offerings also included mead and wine.

The Vikings worshiped their gods outside in nature. They would choose large, powerful, unique natural structures for places of worship.

The Vikings worshiped their god Odin with an annual festival. As part of their prayer rituals, animals were sacrificed to the gods. Music was a part of this festival.
