NorthWest360

Løbsbeskrivelse fra 2023

360km from Blaavand to Skagen. The most western point to the most Northern point in Denmark.

We invite you on the adventure of a lifetime to remote beaches, isolated islets and deserted forests. Each step you take is a unique exploration of some of the most amazing and challenging coastal landscapes in Denmark. The Route consists of a wealth of footpaths and forest roads in combination with long stretches without definite paths along the coast. We have done everything to avoid asphalt and give you as great a nature experience as possible. Along the way, there will be 2 well-equipped Sleep stations and a number of Unmanned AID Stations, where you can refill the depots before continuing along the route.

Endurance Run
The NorthWest360 event is considered an “Endurance Run” and as such it is not considered a competitive event but rather a life accomplishment. We will record finish times and award top finishers but the accomplishment of the participants in running it is in the experience of it, not how fast you can finish it. Therefore, the spirit of the event is captured in the journey, rather than in each participant’s end result.

NO Course Markings
You will follow the beach and a few times cross through build up areas along the GPX-route. Participants should have ultra distance experience, experience in fastpacking and be incredibly well trained, cold trained and prepared to carry a heavy pack for days on end. Please consider all these factors before registering for this event.
