Paradiset STHLM 2026

Paradiset STHLM is a 26 km solo trail race in Paradisets nature reserve, south of Stockholm, featuring approximately 500 meters of elevation gain and loss. Organized by Trailrunning Sweden AB, it is a stop on the Outnorth Trailtour, attracting runners seeking a genuine forest course over a road race with some unpaved sections. The event provides two aid stations, a seven-hour cutoff, and capacity for about 1,000 participants. The course navigates narrow, twisting paths across exposed rock, pine woods, marshland, wooden walkways, and small bodies of water. It demands consistent focus because of the frequently changing terrain and undulating profile, which prevents a simple, steady pace. The organizers embrace the event's name; their concept of paradise involves scenic difficulty, physical exertion, and shared experience. Post-race, the emphasis is on accomplishment, camaraderie, and a festive atmosphere, extending the day beyond just crossing the finish line.
