Each course description notes technical sections and varied surfaces. The 7 km route is a short gravel trail with steep climbs and a fjord viewpoint; registration includes entry to a post-race barbecue and a live concert. The 12 km course mixes sustained climbs with fast descents and scenic fjord views. The 25 km route crosses mountain terrain with technical alpine sections, singletrack and bogs; it has previously been part of the Golden Trail World Series. The 55 km and 95 km routes are long loops that move from fjord level to high alpine terrain, pass farms and bogs, and link fjord sections and villages along the Sunnmøre coast.
