6 Lakes

About this event

The 6 Lakes race takes runners on a beautifully crafted loop connecting six scenic lakes in the forests around Fjällnora. What started as one runner's favorite marathon route has become a low-key, eco-conscious event that keeps things small and friendly—just 400 participants per distance. The course winds through classic Swedish woodland, with distances ranging from a full marathon down to a 5.5km option for younger runners. After crossing the finish line, runners can cool off with a swim at Fjällnora beach. The event's commitment to sustainability shows in thoughtful touches like wooden medals and minimal waste. A steam train sometimes chugs past during the race, adding a touch of charm to an already memorable forest run.
