TCS Lidingöloppet 30 – something extraordinary on soft trails in amazing nature!
Welcome to the world's largest cross-country race - TCS Lidingöloppet! The race is known for being as challenging as it is varied. The tough and beautiful course has been one of Sweden's great running challenges since its inception in 1965, a true test of strength for all runners – elite as well as amateur. Here, flat meadows and gravel roads are interspersed with sloping paths and steep uphill slopes.
To embark on this hilly 30 km track, you should be equipped with a substantial amount of endurance. The reward comes as you sprint to the finish and get to celebrate your achievement.
TCS Lidingöloppet 30 is part of En Svensk Klassiker.
