Glesværløpet 2026

Glesværløpet is a 4.5 km race held on Glesvær in Øygarden, near Bergen. The start and finish lines are located at Glesvær kafè. Glesnes Ungdom- og Idrettslag organizes the event, which has been held over twenty times. The race includes competitive classes and a recreational class. The course winds through Glesvær's coastal landscape, passing old boathouses. It utilizes established farm roads, sections of asphalt, and trail paths. The majority of participants enter the recreational class, while a smaller group competes for the fastest times. Recent top performances include a men's winning time narrowly missing the course record by one second, and a women's course record set by Eli Anne Dvergsdal.
