EX SWIMRUN RUNMARÖ 2027

Experience the charm of Sweden’s National Day at Runmarö Island, where swimrun enthusiasts gather to celebrate this unique aquatic sport. Situated within the heart of Swimrun's birthplace, Runmarö is renowned for its seven freshwater lakes, affectionately known as "swamps" in local parlance. These pristine waters provide ideal conditions for swimming early in the season, offering a warm and safe environment.
This year’s event features two exciting routes: a SHORT race (approximately 15 kilometers) and a LONG race (around 24 kilometers). Both courses weave through crystal-clear lakes such as Viträsket, Uppebyträsket, Nästräsket, and the enigmatic Noreträsket. Participants will also navigate sea swims to picturesque locations like Storholmen, Solberga, and across Runmarö Kanal to Storön.
The courses have been carefully tested during summer months to ensure optimal conditions for both swimmers and runners. The routes are designed to offer a balanced mix of lake and sea swimming, with the flexibility to adjust distances based on water temperature.
Svängens Krog serves as the event’s central hub, providing a cozy atmosphere where participants can enjoy food, drinks, and conversation before and after their races. This gathering spot is not only perfect for socializing but also offers an inspiring setting that encourages both locals and visitors to explore swimrun in the archipelago.
Join us on June 6, 2027, as we come together to celebrate Swimrun at Runmarö Island. Whether you're a seasoned athlete or new to the sport, this event promises breathtaking scenery and memorable experiences amidst Sweden’s vibrant cultural celebrations.
