Sandsjöbacka Trail

Sandsjöbacka Trail is a winter trail running event held south of Gothenburg on 15–16 January 2026. The event offers several distance options over natural singletrack and forest trails, with winter conditions and varied underfoot surfaces.

Distances

30 km
60 km
90 km
180 km Out and Back from Skatås to Tjolöholm and back

The terrain includes muddy uphill sections, flowy trails and open views in the surrounding nature areas. Organizers present distances aimed at both experienced ultrarunners and recreational runners attempting longer efforts. The longest format is an out and back course between Skatås and Tjolöholm.

The event program includes organized test runs and partner activities. Test runs have been held on routes such as Kållered–Skatås, Anneberg–Kållered and Tjolöholm slott–Anneberg, run in different pace groups. Participants are asked to navigate with GPX when needed and to bring their own energy, fluids and basic first aid. Some partner runs meet at the Botanical Garden and include about one hour of running in Änggårdsbergen with post-run gathering and limited test shoes or spots.

Volunteers support course marking, aid stations and logistics. Results are published live during the event and as final results afterward. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
