Notable Features

Ångaloppet uniquely combines trail running through Sweden's archipelago terrain with open water swimming in both lake and sea environments. Teams navigate through unmarked forest sections, rocky islands, and coastal waters, with up to 20 separate swim segments ranging from 30 to 190 meters. The event's scenic location in Sörmland's archipelago provides a distinctive Nordic adventure racing experience.
