A 10 kilometer long road that the riders have to ride 10 times to finish again in Funningur. Due to the nature of the small circuit the race is modelled into a “Devil Take the Hindmost” or elimination race. He who will be lapped will be out of the race.
Starting in Funningur the road goes uphill and slowly descends to Gjogv. Funninger lies in the shadow of Slættaratindur, the highest mountain in the Faroer Islands and legends say it was founded by Grímur Kamban, the first settler of the Faroer. Gjogv, a harbourtown, where they descend into town and cross the river to ride back to Funningur is known for its natural harbor and is a thriving yet small fishing village. After ten laps of each 10 kilometers those who remain will sprint for victory on Svorvisvegur and claim the trophy of Grimur.
