Parking – Brumunddal / Hamar
Due to the Speed Skating World Championships in Hamar, parking will not be available there during SkiBirken 2025. Instead, parking will be available in Brumunddal (Mjøsparken), with bus transport to Rena. This can save you up to 2 hours of driving!

  • A pick-up stop is available at Midtstranda (Hamar, eastbound) for boarding and disembarking only (no parking).
  • After finishing the race, return buses will operate from Lillehammer to Brumunddal and Midtstranda.

Pre-book your bus ticket via MY PAGE before 20:00 the night before.

More Environmental Monitors on the Course
Littering on the course causes dangerous falls and injuries. Throwing waste in the tracks harms both the environment and fellow skiers. This year, we are increasing the number of environmental monitors along the course. Throwing trash in the tracks will result in a 15-minute penalty. 

Red Bull Sprint – Sjusjøen
In the middle of SkiBirken's own "Tour de France hill," you'll find the Red Bull Sprint! Who can ski 100 meters the fastest? The fastest woman and fastest man each win NOK 10,000. Open to all start groups. 

Food Service – Al Bronzo Pasta
Enjoy a hearty meal before race day! Pasta dinners will be available for purchase in:

  • Håkons Hall & Åmot Kulturhus (Thursday & Friday) 16:00 – 20:00
  • Price: NOK 95
