More than 1200 foreign skiers are registered for the main event, Birkebeinerrennet 18. March. Nordic citizens are on the top of the country list with Denmark and Sweden passing 366 participants.

USA and Tsjekkia are also passing 100 and is followed by Germany, Switzerland, Finland and Italy - who complete this picture of a popular international ski race. We do value this brotherhood of skiers by those troubled times.

The numbers for SkateBirken on Friday are also showing increasing interest from foreign skiers.

We look forward to welcome our foreign ski friends to Birken 2023.

It's still possible to register and to find accommodation
