_compressed.avif)
Bortelid Ski Festival is a cross-country ski race, with or without timing, held in the beautiful ski terrain of Bortelid. The focus is on the tour and the nature experience, offering a high-quality event at an affordable price for everyone who enjoys skiing with others.
Bortelid Ski Festival is cancelled until further notice due to a lack of staff. We hope to be able to hold the race again in the future.
Course information
Here you can choose between four different course lengths so that everyone can find something that suits them. The shortest, at 4 km, is perfect for children, has little elevation gain, and goes around Rundatjønna. All courses pass the Audi stop, where you can get drinks and fresh baked goods from Geheb. The 20 km and 35 km courses also have a food and drink station at the Storrhei junction up in the mountains.
- 4 km gentle "Rundatjønna" course (1 refreshment station)
- 10 km rolling "Bjørnen-runden" in forest terrain (1 refreshment station)
- 35 km "Bjørnen-runden" + "Gluggen-runden with Storrhei" (2 refreshment stations)
- 20 km "Gluggen-runden" in the mountains (2 refreshment stations)
NOK 620 for a family registration for up to 6 people, including license for your choice of course!
Fresh baked goods from Geheb and drinks at the AUDI stop, at the Storrhei junction, and at the finish line. Music and refreshments in the finish area.
Both skating and classic styles are permitted in all races. The 35 km classic skiers get a 6-minute head start over the skaters. Who will cross the finish line first? In 2019, it looked like a close duel for the men's victory, but the classic skiers pulled away towards the end in the heavy snow conditions.
The final time gap between classic and skating for the 35 km race will be set at 4:00 PM the day before the start. For 2022, this is set to 6 minutes.
3,000 NOK for the best male and female under 25 in the 35 km race. Prizes for the best boy/girl under 17 in the 10 km race, plus raffle prizes from Intersport and Mizuno. Finisher medals for all participants.
The race is held in collaboration with Audi Gumpens Auto Øst, Intersport Skippergata, Intersport Evje, Mizuno, Oddersjaa, Søgne Red Cross, and Bortelid Fjellpark.
