Stockholms Brantaste

Stockholm’s Steepest is an intense hill race in Hammarbybacken, taking place on 17 October 2026. The race is just over 3–3.5 km long, with a steep climb and more than 200 metres of elevation gain. It welcomes both experienced runners and beginners looking to challenge themselves. The finish is at the top of the hill, with a great view over the city. The children’s races, Brantaste Mini and Brantaste Minsta, are also offered, but registration may be closed at certain times.

Race confirmation is sent by email (usually about 2 weeks before the race, or sooner for late registration). Bib distribution is listed as taking place in the event area on Hammarby Fabriksväg (the information text specifies bib distribution) and opens from 09:30 according to participant information. The bib contains a chip and should be worn unfolded at a 45–90° angle; attach it with safety pins (bring about 4) and write your name, phone number and medical information on the back. The race includes timing, a medal and water stations; the children’s races have water at the finish and a medal. Registration for Brantaste Mini and Brantaste Minsta may be closed at certain times. Free hill-training sessions in Hammarbybacken are held before race day.
