Roadbook
You and your team will receive a Roadbook with exciting stage suggestions as well as extraordinary tasks, cool challenges and opportunities for extra fun. The activities and tips in the Roadbook are just a bonus, not mandatory!

All possible, nothing required!

How many members can a team have?
There is no upper limit, you just all have to fit in the vehicle.

Charity:
Each team collects 250€ for sustainable charity projects of their choice.
Nothing required - everything possible!

Entry fee:
A team of 2 starts already from 1.600€.
Each additional member 300€.

From a winter bivouac on a glacier to a log cabin with a beaver to a luxury hotel & champagne, anything is allowed! Depending on your sense of adventure and budget, you are free to decide what suits you best on each stage.

The spontaneous search for suitable accommodation on the respective stage is usually no problem during the rally period. 

There are also hotel recommendations on special stages.

The road conditions during the rally could not be more varied:

From dry asphalt roads at plus 5 degrees,
to gravel paths with a thick layer of snow at minus 20 degrees,
through icy pothole parkours at 0 degrees.

Everything is possible & there is something for every taste!

Just as with any adventure rally—but especially in winter—choosing the right tires is a science unto itself.

Really good winter tires are an absolute must!

Whether you’re allowed to use spiked/studded tires depends on each country’s road regulations. If you want to cruise with spikes, you should wait until Scandinavia to put them on, as they are generally forbidden in Germany.

In January the rally starts in Hamburg. The event begins around 10am and the official start takes place between 11 and 12am. 

On the evenings prior, all adventurers can already get to know each other at the pre-adventure-get-together and get in the mood for the upcoming adventures. The event will start around 6pm.

Of course, all friends and fans are welcome.

At the start of the Viking Snow Rally in Hamburg, the Roadbook will be handed over to your team, packed with great stage suggestions, incredible challenges, fun & adventure.

The tasks and adventures have to be solved in the best possible way with your team until you reach the finish line. Creativity and talent for improvisation are key.
The roadbook tasks are not compulsory!

On the way through Scandinavia, we celebrate awesome rally events with you.

From ice drift action on a frozen lake to winter bivouac party in the snowy forests with campfire, saunas and hot tub, everything is included.

Where and what exactly happens on the route will remain our secret until the start...you'll find out in the Roadbook!

With the SAC Live Tracking App for all rally teams, your friends, relatives and colleagues can follow your team live during the rally.

With the app you can view your driven route as well as rally statistics and add photos, videos and comments to the individual stages. You can also create a professionally designed photo book with all your rally memories after the rally.

In Kristiansand, we celebrate the successful completion of the Viking Snow rally with a big closing event and, of course, an award ceremony.
There will also be an official hotel recommendation at the finish location.

The winner of the Viking Snow Roadbook Competition will earn a starting spot for another SAC rally of their choice worth up to €1,790!

The rally community decides here! 

Collect additional points in the Roadbook Competition for your extraordinary vehicle, your helpfulness, your boldness or because you are always up for any kind of fun. Creativity pays off! 

Impress the other teams with your rally spirit!

In your rally kit you will find everything you need for an official rally:
