Jätten Bule-löpet

Jätten Bule-löpet is a long-running cross-country race organised by IFK Österbymo on the first weekend of November. The race celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2019 and attracts runners of all ages to the forests of Ydre. Distances range from KnatteBule for the very youngest, to 2.4 km for children aged 4–12, as well as 5 km and 10 km events for running or walking on challenging terrain. The event is an autumn festival that welcomes both competitive runners and recreational participants.

Distances include KnatteBule for the youngest participants, 2.4 km for children aged 4–12, and 5 km and 10 km events for running or walking. Bulevallen is the meeting point, and IFK Österbymo, together with Ydre Municipality, is responsible for the Bulespåret floodlit trail, a hilly 2.4 km route used during the event. The race includes various distances, from children’s events to adult races, and takes place in the scenic surroundings of Ydre. In 2026, weather conditions may affect the terrain, but the race is open to all runners and outdoor enthusiasts.
