In 2024, Vegvisir Race will offer three courses with distances of 85, 151, and 238 nautical miles. The two shorter courses are open to both single- and double-handed participants, while the long course is exclusively for double-handed teams. All three courses in 2024 include passage of the Great Belt Bridge.

Drawing from the experiences of the previous year's edition of Denmark's most challenging long-distance race, it has been decided to eliminate sailing in the Femern Belt entirely due to the numerous restrictions imposed by the work on the Femern Link.

– Even though we are excluding the Baltic Sea, we still have Denmark's most challenging long-distance race. All courses feature the Vegvisir combination of highly challenging navigation and long open stretches where sailors can push their boats to the maximum. For the first time, the long course heads northeast, and we have high expectations for it. Both the mark rounding in Isefjord and the rounding of the rugged rock formation that is Hallands Väterö will pose challenges for participants on the long course, says Morten Brandt from the Vegvisir Race management.
