The Arctic Triple

Lofoten Relay (Lofotstafetten)


10 stages - 100 Miles // 50 Miles - Week 22

THE WORLD’S MOST BEAUTIFUL RELAY RUN (STAFETT)

Registration opens September 15th 21:00

FRIDAY 3RD AND SATURDAY 4TH OF JUNE 2022
This is the first ever 100 Miles/50 Miles RELAY (stafett) race in Norway and is a great teambuilding product, where you work together before and during the race. It is a great way to experience Lofoten, which is often described as the world’s most beautiful islands. The relay races consist of 10 stages, 100 Miles stages 9-22 km and 50 Miles stages from 3-15 km. Some stages are flat and some have more elevation and technical terrain. To get to the start of the race you have to take a short boat ride into the spectacular Kirkefjord, close to the famous fishing village Reine, known as one of the most picturesque areas in the world. The relay course is the same as the individual course. If you participate 10 years and switch legs every year you may finish the whole 100 miles course after 10 years. This is a pretty cool way to experience Lofoten, from west to east.

Please note – race brief the day before the start (late afternoon).
