The Official Race Course Is Now on Strava

ree

The countdown to Janteloppet has officially begun and the best part... You can train on the real Janteloppet race course (minus the pump tracks and slalom features) right now, thanks to our official route being live on Strava.


Whether you’re a first-timer, a weekend warrior, or dreaming of lining up next to world-class athletes, this lets you experience the Janteloppet course in the most accessible and motivating way possible.



Why Train on the Official Janteloppet Route on Strava?


1. Know the Course Before You Even Get There

Strava lets you preview and practice the exact terrain, elevation, and flow of the race.

You’ll understand:

  • Where the climbs kick in

  • Where the downhills demand control

  • Where you can push, rest, and regroup

  • How the course feels at race pace


This familiarity is a massive advantage when race day comes.


2. Build Your Season Around the Actual Demands of the Race


With the route on Strava, you can plan training sessions that match the real Janteloppet profile:

  • Intervals on Janteloppet’s signature climbs

  • Endurance sessions along the rolling middle section

  • Technique work on the flats and transitions


You’re building fitness tailored to your race.


3. Compare Your Progress Against Yourself and Everyone Else


Because it’s Strava, you get:

  • Segment times

  • Leaderboards

  • Personal best tracking

  • Training logs that sync automatically


You’ll watch your numbers improve on the exact same segments you’ll face on race day. That’s motivating on a whole different level.


4. Train Wherever You Are


Even if you’re not in Hafjell, you can still train like you are. Use the Strava route to:

  • Replicate climbs and distances on skis, rollerskis, or running

  • Match effort levels based on elevation gain

  • Build long sessions that stay true to the Janteloppet feel


For roller-skiers and runners, this means full off snow conditioning.


5. Feel Part of the Community From Day One


The Janteloppet community on Strava is growing fast. Jump in early and:

  • See who else is training

  • Cheer each other on

  • Compare lines, splits, and strategies

  • Share stories from training on the real route (we may reshare)


Race day becomes even more electric when you already recognize names from the leaderboard.



This is your head start. We can’t wait to see your training sessions on Strava.
