The Valkyrie Series
Race the Valkyrie season
Five editions raced since 2021, and seven destinations at different stages of development - from Durango, the signature end-of-season final, to events still in course design. Each one is labelled with where it actually stands.
The Course
Seven legs. Two courses.
Every Valkyrie race runs the same seven disciplines, and every leg is raced in two versions — a Full Course leg and a shorter Sprint Course leg. The numbering shows the order as previously run; final 2027 sequencing, distances, elevation, maps and exchange locations are being verified and are not published yet.

Under evaluation
Markets we are looking at
These are places Valkyrie is evaluating as potential future event locations. None of them is an approved or confirmed event. There are no dates, no courses, no venues, no permits and no registration — and there may never be. We list them because we would rather be open about where we are looking than pretend the map is finished.
Not confirmed events
Valkyrie is evaluating this market as a potential future event location. Event details have not been confirmed.
Under evaluation
These markets have been through our screening process. That means we have looked at them closely — it does not mean any of them is approved, permitted, scheduled or confirmed. No market in this section has a date or a course.
