Sweden’s most authentic and prestigious mountain marathon! It’s time for the 22nd edition of a race that began in 2005 with a loop of the classic Jämtlandstriangeln.
For 2026, we aim to take the race over Ottfjället along our signature Fjällmaraton trail. We’ll update the website, race map, and more information on the feed stations and cut-off times as soon as this is confirmed! For the moment, you’ll find us in a lengthy dialogue with the regional land council – wish us luck.
Whether you’re a seasoned mountain and trail runner or a fresh-faced newbie, if you are keen to experience something outside of the ordinary and love new sights on your runs, you’re welcome on the startline of our Kia 45K for a genuine challenge.
To get one of our famous wooden medals, you’ve got to run under “medaljtiden”, which is the winner’s time plus 30%.
Feed stations
All participants must be self-sufficient throughout the race. This means carrying your own water, refilling at feed stations, or finding natural streams. Support is not permitted along the route – only at the official feed stations.
