Craft Ski Marathon – Ski Classics Challengers Event

For many Swedish recreational skiers, Craft Ski Marathon is the kick-off for the race season, taking place at the beginning of January.

The event attracts about 800 skiers yearly, with recreational and professional skiers on the starting line.

The course is 21km over two laps, making up 42km in classic technique. The start and finish are at the Grönklitt ski metropolis, just 10km away from Mora, famous for the finish of Vasaloppet.

The Local Organizing Committee is pleased about the event in the upcoming weekend:

“We look forward to once again welcoming skiers to Grönklitt and the 11^th edition of Craft Ski Marathon. This year, we hope to be able to offer a bigger event for both participants and audience.”

The Craft Ski Marathon will take place on January 14, 2024, and apart from the 42km long-distance race, a Ski Classics Challengers event and a shorter 21km race are also on the program.
