The deadline for applying for VAKE 2019 was November 15th and we'll publish the list of teams December 1st. You can contact us on post[at]vake.no to enquire about waiting list - of course we cannot guarantee a spot. 

No time limits, extreme exhaustion, sleep deprivation and competitors to watch. The 2018 edition of VAKE will be one big team racing towards Vardø. Join us!

The inspiration for Varanger Arctic Kite Enduro, came from the sled dog races. - Why not have a kite expedition race with checkpoints like Finnmarksløpet or Iditarod? we thought back then. And VAKE was born. Now we look back and take a step ahead.
