The Course
A multi-lap North Jutland race from Flauenskjold through Voergaard Castle and Dronninglund Storskov, alternating fast gravel with rough forest roads.
Signature challenge: Handling the early castle selection cleanly, then resisting the temptation to over-race the first of three rolling forest laps.

How adventurous is The Wolf?
Racing through Voergaard Castle before repeated laps in one of North Jutland's largest forests gives the event unusual character.[1]
How prestigious is The Wolf?
UCI status makes The Wolf nationally relevant, while its competitive identity is still too new for higher prestige.[1]
