Race description

Gränsö Trailrun is a running event in Gränsö Nature Reserve outside Västervik, offering technical and scenic trails, coastal rocky shorelines, and some of Sweden’s finest oak pastures around Gränsö Castle. Choose between 8 km and 15 km on well-marked courses, or let the children take part in Gränsö Kids Trail (up to age 12). The race offers both timed participation and Fun Run without timing, and encourages an enjoyable experience in nature—why not combine it with a spa visit at Gränsö Castle? Welcome to experience the Västervik archipelago at its best.
