We are planning a huge Viking party offering participants and spectators a special experience in one of Denmark’s central Viking areas, where to this day many of the proud Viking traditions are passionately maintained. The central focal point is nature, which we use as an arena for the world Championships, with a great focus on how to take better care of it. With an innovative approach to old traditions, we create a focus on health, Nordic food, and sustainability.

The Vikings were unsurpassed masters on the water, could party, and explore with a special endurance. We will pass on that inspiration. The 2023 ICF Canoe Marathon World Championships will show both international athletes, family, and tourists that we in Denmark and the Triangle area have the surroundings, the skills, and the community to create a professional, festive, and exciting event beyond the ordinary.
