8TH - 14TH SEPTEMBER 2025

Sail with Excelsior in the Limfjorden Rundt 2025. It's one of the Nordic region's biggest races for wooden sailing ships and we are very excited to be taking part once more. About 65 former commercial vessels join in, visiting the harbours of Løgstør, Thisted, Struer, Nykøbing Mors, Fur and Skive around the spectacular Limfjord in Denmark. Most of the participating boats are Danish, Norwegian or Swedish, so this is a brilliant opportunity to bask in Scandinavian culture and party Nordic-style in each port. There are no tides or large swell in the Limfjord, so you will experience dreamy flat-water sailing and an incredible view of the other ships as we jostle for place in the tight fjords. It's an experience like no other. You'll have loads of fun, make lots of international friends, experience community festivities and enjoy the scenery of one of the prettiest parts of Denmark.

This trip is more geared at over 18s, but is suitable for any age 14+

Meet the boat in Løgstør on Monday 8th September and be welcomed with a large Viking-style dinner with the other competitors, before departing for the first race on Tuesday 9th. After that there is a programme of day-racing between the other participating ports, with local events and dinners at each stop (the price of the dinner is separate, and for all those who don't want to join the port dinner we will provide a meal on board). We finish in Skive on Saturday 13th, and you'll depart the boat on Sunday 14th once you've recovered. We recommend you fly in and out of Aalborg airport. There are regular Ryanair flights to/from Stansted, and public buses between Aalborg centre and the start and finish ports. At the end of the event we may have an option for you to stay and help deliver Excelsior back home to Lowestoft. Please get in touch for details and special prices for this.
