XTERRA Nordic Series Now Open

Two of the three planned events in the XTERRA Nordic Series is now open for registration.

First-up is XTERRA Sweden on July 13th. The race venue is Hellasgården, a scenic and popular place to meet for active people. Located only 15 minutes away from Slussen station in Stockholm, Hellasgården serves as a gateway to one of Sweden´s finest nature reserves. Offering a wide range of activities, Hellasgården is a fantastic platform for the XTERRA events. Above all, many people and their families come here to enjoy nature, exercise, and just simply relax. The weekend will include a 10km trail run on Friday, July 11, and a 30km mountain bike race on Saturday, the 12th, with the main event on Sunday, the 13th.

Next is XTERRA Denmark on August 31. The venue is set in Tisvilde, just short of an hour drive from Copenhagen Airport. West of Tisvildeleje – just outside Denmark’s fifth biggest forest – is Tisvilde Hegn, a kilometer-long stretch of white sands and child-friendly beaches with clean seawater, sand dunes and woods.

“It’s absolutely the perfect setting for a testing and beautiful XTERRA course,” said Steen Walter.

The weekend will include a 10km trail run on Friday, Aug. 29th and a 30km mountain bike race on Saturday, Aug. 30th.

An additional race in Norway is also in the works, but has yet to be finalized. Details on all events can be found at www.xterranordic.com.
