The Shire of Hauksgarðr invites you to join us for our 13th August in the Park, and the premier of the Hauksgarðr Viking Bog Olympics.

There will be games and contests throughout the day, including: Hunkerhausen, Glima (shield wrestling), Togahonk, Jomsvinger, and the Porthole Rat Toss! For the heavy fighters there will be a Holmgång contest. If you’re looking for something a little more relaxed, we will have a selection of board and lawn games like Hnefatafl, Taflkast, Kubb and Petanque. We’ll also have some A&S classes to keep you busy.

There will be plenty of activities to choose from if you wish, or just relax in the shade of the big trees and be a spectator if that’s your preference!

There will be a potluck in the afternoon, so bring your favorite dish & your feast gear.

Site fee: FREE!!
