Mushom is a small farming village in Vennesla municipality in Vest-Agder county, Norway. The village is located about 2.5 kilometres (1.6 mi) west of the village of Homstean.

The so-called "Øvrebø-ski" was found in a marsh at Mushom. For many years it was considered Norway's oldest preserved ski. The artifact can now be seen at the Holmenkollen Ski Museum in Oslo.
