The start and finish line is at the Midgardur sports hall, located by the golf course in Vetrarmyri. The race course runs through the Vifilsstadir area and Heidmork, passing through recreational forests in Smalaholt and Sandahlid. The route gradually ascends over hills and elevations for the first 5.5 km, reaching its highest point at 150 meters above Midgardur. This highest point is located on the hillside above the new scout center. From there, the course is mostly downhill, featuring a steep and long descent along the new trail leading to Vifilsstadavatn lake. The total elevation gain for the 11 km course is approximately 200 meters. The surface of all trails, across all race distances, is not technical. It consists mostly of compacted dirt trails, similar to those found throughout Heidmork, with some sections following horse trails and well-maintained gravel paths.
