Venue Info

Beitostølen

The arrangers say: "We are of course happy to be back in “the good company” and are looking forward to host the top athletes in international cross-country. After seven years of snow-storage we are happy to invite all athletes to a guaranteed 5 km of international format already from 1st November every year. Since our last World Cup event in 2009 we have made some changes on the courses, made most of the courses wider due to the relay competitions and we will do our outmost to give the athletes with coaches and officials fair competitions and a good stay here in
Beitostølen.

Chalet in Beitostølen

Beitostølen is located in the middle of the mountains in southern Norway about 150 K directly westward from Lillehammer and 220 K North-West from the main airport Oslo Gardermoen. In the village it is 400 people living, in the community 3200, but there are 3500 huts and chalets with six beds or more, so during the winter-holidays and easter we have about 15.000 people here. At the moment it is some kind of a “Klondyke” in Beitostølen, we are finishing app 100 new chalets every year and during 2020 it will be over 200 new apartments in the city of the village."

Tour de Ski 2017, ohjelma ja radat / Program and Courses

Tour round the Alps is calling again. After short Christmas holiday skiers are heading first to Val Müstair in Swizerland. The New Year is celebrated there  with two competitions. After that is Oberstdorf in order also with two starts. On 6th January trucks and skiers are in Toblach Italy.
The last competitions will be in Val di Fiemme.

Fis-Ski: TdS

It seems, that some skiers have not started in after Ruka and are waiting for TdS. They are following pre-competition training before Lahti WSC or might have been sick.

Alppien kiertue kutsuu hiihtäjiä jälleen. Lyhyen joululoman jälkeen hiihtäjät suuntaavat ensin Val Müstairiin Sveitsiin. Uusi vuosi vaihtuu siellä kahden kisan merkeissä. Sen jälkeen matka jatkuu vuorostaan Oberstdorfiin Saksaan, jossa on myös kaksi starttia. Loppiaisena rekat ja hiihtäjät ovat Toblachissa Italian puolella. Viimeiset kiertueen kisat ovat perinteisesti Val di Fiemmessä.

Tänä vuonna näyttää siltä, että osa hiihtäjistä on jättänyt kilpailuja väliin ennen Touria ja osa ilmeisesti taas Tour de Skin kilpailuja. Kuntoa rakennetaan Lahden MM-kilpailuihn ja kunkin valmistautuminen ja sairastelut sanelevat osallistumisia,
