Lidingöloppet Funäsfjällen begins and ends at Bruksvallarnas ski stadium in the Swedish mountains, offering race choices from 1.7 km to 30 km. This trail race is part of the Lidingöloppet series, known for its main event, the world’s largest cross-country race. The Funäsfjällen edition, though new, provides the series a more challenging mountain environment compared to the traditional Lidingö course.
The course features steep ascents, sloped paths, open fields, and broad mountain vistas, appealing to runners seeking hills and varied terrain over a flat road race. Participants may include dedicated trail runners, Lidingöloppet veterans, and newcomers attracted by the shorter distances and the series' training ethos. Within the broader Lidingöloppet framework, participants can access a 20-week gradual running plan, engage in group runs and relays, trial equipment, practice sections of the course, and attend uphill technique workshops suitable for all skill levels.
