Many are wondering about the conditions, and things are looking great! Over the mountain, the conditions are excellent, and only two areas in the lowlands are being closely monitored for any necessary adjustments.

• Tingstadjordet: There is little snow here, and after the weekend, we will assess if the start needs to be moved a few hundred meters uphill.
• Towards Lillehammer after Sjusjøen: If needed, extra snow will be added in some exposed areas over the weekend.

With colder temperatures returning, everything is lining up for great conditions. No need to worry – just get excited! Nearly 13,000 Birkebeiners will soon be ready at the starting line, and the countdown has begun. We can’t wait!
