The fourth edition of LØBEREN Kongernes 5-Days of the Kings will be held in 2026, and the first stage will of course be celebrated.
Therefore, all you need to do is finish 26th.
This means that the lucky winner of the daily prize for the first stage— a gift certificate for one night’s stay for two at Hotel Hamlet in Helsingør, including breakfast—will be the 26th runner to cross the finish line, regardless of category or age.

On the second stage, it's all about making the best social media post. You do this by uploading it to either Facebook or Instagram and tag LØBEREN Kongernes 5-dages. You can choose whether you upload a picture, movie or a reel, but of course remember to tag us. You are also allowed to upload something from yesterday's stage.
After the race, we look through all the posts and the next day we announce the winner of the daily prize, which is a DKK 500 gift card to LØBEREN.
Only posts made before Friday, July 3 at 12:00 noon will be included in the competition. Remember to tag LØBEREN Kongernes 5-dages in your post.

Today you have to guess the fastest time on the stage.
For example, if you guess that today's stage will be won in 53 minutes 29 seconds and 44 hundredths, you write on a piece of paper "Time: 53:29:44, Name: ... , Chest number: ..."
Submit your guess no later than half an hour before the start and hand the slip to our Crew at the kiosk. The person whose guess is closest to the actual time wins the daily prize, which is a free entry to the LØBEREN Kongernes 5-dages 2027.
Good luck!

King Hans’s Sprint*
For this stage, we’ve created a segment on Strava—a hill sprint where, of course, the goal is to go all out! There will be a sign posted in the forest 50 meters before the start of the segment, and another one at the start and end of the segment. Be sure to upload your ride by 10:00 PM on July 4 so we can announce the winner the next day. The fastest rider on the selected segment will win the daily prize: a Salomon running backpack.
Remember to download Strava before the race starts. It is free to download and register as a user.
*The Bakkespurten takes its name from Kong Hans’ Høj, which the Bakkespurten passes during the 300-meter-long sprint with a 21-meter climb.

This is the final stage, so you’ll need to give it everything you’ve got: That’s why today’s goal is to have the fastest sprint to the finish line. Once again, we’ve created a segment on Strava that will cover the final meters of the stage. Once you’ve caught your breath after crossing the finish line, please upload your ride to Strava as soon as possible so we can determine who is the lucky winner of today’s prize: a free entry to LØBEREN Kongernes 5-dages 2027!
