Events along the route

On the way along the most beautiful backroads and panoramic trails of Skandinavia, we will celebrate some awesome rally events and action stations with you.
From a midsummer festival with the entire rally community to a timed driving challenge on the racetrack, a varied event programme full of action and memorable moments awaits you along the route.

What exactly will happen — and where these events will take place — remains our secret until the start. You’ll get the full reveal in the roadbook

Roadbook

At the start of the rally, your team will receive the roadbook, packed with great stage suggestions, extraordinary tasks, fun & lots of adventure. You will also find all the information about the Meet & Greet Points and the official SAC Rally party on the road in the roadbook.
The tasks and adventures have to be solved in the best possible way with your team until the finish. Creativity and the improvisation talent are the trump cards here.
But the roadbook tasks are not obligatory! Always according to the motto: All possible! Nothing required.
The team that collects the most roadbook points with all the missions & challenges wins the roadbook competition and as the winner not only receives a standing ovation but also a ticket for a SAC adventure rally of its choice at the festive award ceremony during the closing event.

Party-Time

To give you and your team enough time to share your adventures with the other teams on the way through Scandinavia, we will have an official party stop on the tour. At the official SAC Rally Party all teams will pitch their tents together. Of course you can also spend the night there in your own rally bus or truck. Overnight stays in nearby guesthouses or hotels are also possible!

In Southern Norway we will celebrate the successful end of the Viking Sun Adventure Rally with a big closing event and of course an award ceremony. Where exactly the events will take place, you will find out in the roadbook.
