Hellasloppet 2026

Hellasloppet is a family-friendly running day at Hellasgården, a nature reserve near Stockholm. The event features short, accessible distances: a 400 m for the youngest runners, a 1,400 m middle option, 2,800 m, 5 km race and a 10 km race. It is intended for children, parents, friends, casual runners, club athletes, orienteers, swimmers, tennis players, and anyone seeking a local race instead of a large-city event. The courses wind through the Hellas area on trails and roads, passing lakes and hills. The children’s race is mostly flat. Expect some uphill sections on the longer routes, along with music, cafe service, and award ceremonies. Transportation is convenient: buses run from Slussen, there is ample parking, and bikes can be stored near the start.
