About the Track & GoKarts

One of Denmark's oldest go-kart tracks — since 1964

Mou GoKart Track

The track is one of Denmark's oldest go-kart tracks. It has been around since 1964 and is approximately 640 meters long and 6-8 meters wide. That might not sound like much, but when karts with a top speed of over 80 km/h are racing around it, there are challenges for go-kart drivers of all skill levels.

With hairpin turns and straightaways that require perfect brake timing, even experienced drivers find themselves challenged.

The past year has brought changes to the track's features. Where there used to be sandpits to stop drivers with an overly eager foot on the accelerator, there are now rubber mats. This means more driving time instead of breaks while the engine gets cleared of sand.

Everyone can drive go-kart!

Our GoKarts come in multiple sizes. This means we can give kids and adults of all sizes a ride on the track.

If your child is at least 7 years old, then go-karting is an option with us. Our current age record is set by a 97-year-old young woman!

We always recommend calling ahead if you're bringing the little ones, so we can make sure the right karts are ready.

The Perfect Race

Our freshly painted starting grid sets the ideal stage for a race. The drivers line up behind the line, and when the green light signals the start, they can feel the machines and hear the engines roaring in a sprint up the straightaway before they hit the first turn.

Who dares wait longest to hit the brakes — and who waits too long? It can all be decided at the first corner.

Famous Drivers from Mou

Three world-class drivers started their careers on our track

Mr. Le Mans

Tom Kristensen

9x Le Mans winner

As a 10-year-old in 1977, Tom sat in a go-kart for the first time at the Mou track. The track became his second home, and under the guidance of Allan and Lisa Hussted, he became Danish go-kart champion four times.

In 1985, he beat future Formula 1 world champion Mika Häkkinen at the Nordic championship. The rest is motorsport history — with a record 9 victories at Le Mans 24 Hours, including 6 in a row.

Danish Go-kart History

From Middelfart to Le Mans — Denmark has a proud go-kart heritage

1958

DINO A/S founded in Denmark

Finn Jørgensen founded the world's oldest go-kart brand in Middelfart, Funen. DINO is today one of the most respected names in go-karting — and still 100% Danish. At Mou we drive DINO karts because we believe in Danish quality and craftsmanship.

1962

Løvel Track opens

Denmark's first permanent go-kart track opens near Viborg. Danish motorsport has a new chapter.

1964

Our track opens east of Aalborg — and has been running non-stop ever since. Over 60 years of go-kart experiences.

1966

Go-kart World Championship in Copenhagen

The only go-kart world championship ever held in Denmark. Won by Italian Susanna Raganelli — still the only woman to have won an FIA world championship on four wheels. Ronnie Peterson (later F1 star) finished 3rd.

1977

Tom Kristensen debuts at Mou

A 10-year-old boy from Hobro sits in a go-kart for the first time. 20 years later, he wins Le Mans.

1984

2014

Team Karlog takes over

A new generation takes over with fresh energy and a vision to preserve the soul of the track — while making the experience even better.

2026

Benjamin & Vicki take the wheel

The track stays in the family. With four kids and gasoline in their blood, the tradition continues into a new era.

Meet the Family Behind the Track

A family business with gasoline in their blood

On January 1, 2026, we — Benjamin and Vicki — took over Mou Gokart. But the story really starts 12 years earlier when Benjamin's parents bought the track. Benjamin grew up with the smell of gasoline and the sound of Honda engines, and spent more of his childhood in a go-kart than on a bicycle.

When the parents wanted to move on, there was no doubt: the track should stay in the family. So here we are — two adults, four kids, and a go-kart track.

Benjamin

The self-proclaimed race chief

Trained nerd with a passion for code and carburetors. Has driven go-karts since he was old enough to reach the pedals. Handles all the technical stuff — from the karts to the website (yes, this one).

Vicki

The one who actually gets things running

Trained social worker, but has traded case files for starting flags. Vicki runs the daily operations, the café, and makes sure everyone — from guests to go-karts — is doing well.

Emma, Cody, Mollie & Luffe

The junior team

Our four kids are already fixtures at the track. They help out where they can, test the karts (someone has to!) and make sure it's never quiet in the café.

Mou Gokart isn't just a business for us — it's part of the family. We've taken over something special, and we work every day to make the experience even better. So when you visit, you're not just visiting a go-kart track. It's our home.
