The Arctic Triple – Lofoten Skimo is the truly arctic race in The Arctic Triple and it will take place every year in week 11. It’s a ski mountaineering race offering one extreme (4000+) and one normal distance (1000+). The race will be a northern lights race that is set in mid March, when the traditional Lofoten fishing is at the peak of the season. Maybe you’ll get a good catch too?

The next edition of Lofoten Skimo will take place in week 11, 14.-16. March 2024:

• Thursday – Guided skitour. Join us for a fun skiing day free of charge
• Friday – Pick up start-kit, race briefing
• Saturday – Race Day Lofoten Skimo! Finishers Ceremony and after ski party
