A New Adventure — The Night Vasa in Freestyle!
March 5, 2021
Complete Support by the Sandoz Concept Team
The start of this new adventure will occur at nightfall at exactly 8 o’clock in the evening. Sälen
will be the location (or Oxberg for the 45 km). The Night Vasa, or “Nattvasan” in Swedish, is the
newest baby of the Vasaloppet Organization. It will happen on the world-famous original 90-
km course (or the 45 km for the half distance) with the legendary finish in the Village of Mora.
Each participate will be with a partner and will use a head-mounted lamp. Because it is a
freestyle race, one partner can skate ski and the other can classic ski; both can skate ski; or
both can classic ski.
Since the Vasaloppet was created in 1922 between Sälen and Mora, more than a million
hearty cross-country skiers have participated in this famous race. To be sure, the normal
daytime version of this race is a great challenge. But imagine it at night! The whole
atmosphere will be different. The setting and the eeriness of the nighttime race will certainly
lead to lots of different emotions. Only the stars and the faint lights of the headlamps will be
accompanying you in the forest and the frozen lakes of Sälen and Mora. This race is limited to
only 1500 two-person teams. That means 3,000 privileged participants will partake in this
unique race. All of the places will be sold in 30 seconds. But we have made a special
arrangement with the race organizers so that you will be allowed to take advantage of this
unique experience.

Specific Dates During Your Trip: 3 days (Thursday - Sunday) March 4 thru March 7, 2021
Thursday, March 4, 2021
You can take any international flight you wish. There is a bus transfer from the Stockholm airport
to your hotel in Mora. You can also take a train to Mora from the Arlanda (Stockholm) airport
(for late arrival, the train station in Mora is only ten minutes from your hotel).
Friday, March 5, 2021
Your hotel is located just 150 meters from the finish line, so this morning you can test your skis
and find out what the snow conditions are so that you can wax just right. We will have a
special wax room prepared just for this event. If you do not want to mess with waxing your
own skis, we have a specialized wax team that can take care of it. You will take the lunch in
the tent (not included in the package) where you get your BIB, and then you take our bus to
Sälen (or Oxberg for the 45km distance).
You will be in teams of two with your headlamps and you will have to be ready at 8:00 p.m. on
the dot. Remember, it is 90km (or 45km for the half distance) to the finish in Mora. As we said
before, you can choose any technique you want—skate or classic. Each of you has to carry
on your person a small backpack with the minimum amount of reserve equipment and also
some food. There will be one refueling spot in Evestberg at 48 km. That means that you will be
able to get some additional food at about two in the morning. The cutoff hour for arriving at
the finish in Mora is eight in the morning. When you cross the finish line, it will still be dark out.
You will simply walk to your hotel for a great breakfast that you will have certainly earned!
Saturday, March 6, 2021
