Kvitfjell Opp is one of the summer's most brutal uphill races, where we turn the Olympic course upside down and run from the finish at the bottom to the start at the top. The course is 3.2 kilometers long with an elevation gain of 838 meters, following the downhill track used during the 1994 Olympics. Participants will encounter challenging sections such as Mæhlumshenget, Tommy Moe, and Wintherhugget, and the feeling of reaching the top is indescribable!
