Valle Skyrace begins and ends in Valle's center, leading runners directly into the surrounding mountains of Vallebygda. This Norwegian mountain running event takes place in August, offering three distances: approximately 14 km with 700 meters of elevation gain, 26 km with 1400 meters, and 43 km with 2600 meters.
The longest course crosses Valle, passes Harstadberg, ascends steeply to Nomelandsfjellet (795m), descends to Honnevje, climbs Homfjellet (950m), and then winds down through Laugardalen and Homme before heading towards Tveitebo. The course features steep ascents and descents, with three challenging climbs on the longest distance, demanding both climbing ability and downhill control from participants. Valle IL initiated the race during the club's centenary. By its second year, registrations more than doubled, attracting 178 participants and requiring officials at seven aid stations along the route.
