There are a couple of hundred kilometres of ski tracks in the beautiful landscape. The week is about having a good time in brisk company. Everybody gains a valuable medal and diploma. After skiing you can enjoy a sauna, swimming and dancing. There is no hurry at the service points, you can have a snack and some soup, wax your skis. During the days between skiing, you can for example watch the reindeer race. The main thing is to enjoy – not to win.

The Ski Routes and Style

The routes have been marked and they are prepared both for the free and the classic ski-style, but you can choose your style.

The tracks has been changed on the first day:

The start will head around the 12 km track around Olos and
after Keimiöjärvi (M3) the track will be on the ice around Keimiöniemi.

Safety

Keep your start number always visible. If you for some reason or other decide to drop out, inform the officials at the next service point and return your start number. In case you need help ask your fellow skiers to inform the officials at the next service point. For this demanding skiing week you should be in good form and at least 16 years of age.

You better know your physical condition and limits, as the fells are unforgiving. For windy weather, it is important to dress especially carefully and ski in groups.The organizers can interrupt skiing whenever safety requires it. Do not leave the route, then the last service scooter can not pass by you.

Insurance

We recommend you to have a skier’s insurance, As the organizer can not take responsibility for any injuries encountered however caused during the skiing week.
