Water Activities: Limfjorden Rundt Sailing Adventure

Sail with Excelsior in the Limfjorden Rundt 2025!

Duration: 7 days

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.

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.

All meals and refreshments are provided on board during the races with options to eat on shore when in port. We can cater for all dietary needs.

There are regular Ryanair flights to/from Stansted, and public buses between Aalborg centre at the start and finish ports.
