HighFive Adventure – “The Backyard Edition”

The race is part of the DARU Cup, which can be found at the Dansk Adventure Race Union.

HighFive Adventure is back on the right side of the fjord. With both start and finish located in Grindsted (the northern one), the beautiful fjord landscape is ready to challenge you, with the stunning autumn sun as a spectator. The final race of the year offers challenges for the whole body and plenty of social fun afterward. We look forward to welcoming both new and experienced racers to a day packed with action in our “backyard.”
