Track profile
The start takes place directly at the sports institute Vuokatti. Everything is there (start number issue, wax service, food, award ceremony, hotel).
The tracks (long distances) lead in the first part around Vuokatti in very demanding terrain. In the second part (also the short distances) the route runs through the magnificent Finnish forests, over ridges with partly long temperate climbs and of course, as its normal in Finland, over many frozen lakes.
The trail network around Vuokatti covers approx. 200 km, which is excellently prepared for classic and free technique. It is a dream to run for any cross country skier.
Route profile
* At 100 km you run the 50 km distance twiceofil
