GRAND PRIZE 30 KM PRO 2026 - CANCELLED
The 2025/26 season has been exceptionally demanding for the world's elite. After an intense Olympic cycle and a packed World Cup calendar, we see the workload on professional athletes at record highs as we approach April.
To ensure the quality that Janteloppet is known for, we have made a strategic decision: This year we choose to prioritize quality over quantity. Instead of fielding a reduced elite field, we are concentrating all energy and focus on the Janteloppet 20 km.
We look forward to creating the ultimate season finale with you!
