REGISTRATION

The trail

50 km is the perfect ultra distance for both experienced runners and debutants in races longer than a marathon.

‍

The course combines gravel roads and technical trails, with some asphalt.

From the start in Holmenkollen, below Frognerseteren, there is a panoramic view of Oslo. You will also run past Norway's biggest tourist attraction, the Holmenkollen Hoppet.

‍

The first drink and food station is after about 20 kilometers, in Sørkedalen. This is also the start for those running the 31km distance. The first 2.5 kilometers from there are continuous climbs on a bit of a path and mostly forest road. From there you get a fantastic view of Oslogryta and the fjord, and also towards the other side of Sørkedalen towards Tryvannstårnet and Holmenkollen.

‍

After about a couple more kilometers you are at the top and have gained about 200 meters in altitude from the food station.

Then you get a little rest in a downhill section before you head onto a lovely windy trail all the way down to Østernvann. From there it's a short walk down a gravel road to Fossum Sports Complex where there is a food and drink station – and also where the start of the 21 km is.

‍

After Fossum you can enjoy the view of Bogstadvannet, before going "down" along the magical Lysakerelva, where it is technical and really hilly!
When you get down to the fjord at Lysaker, there are 10km left to finish. These are run along the Oslofjord and on gravel and some asphalt on rural Bygdøy - with the finish at the beach at Huk, Bygdøy.
