About us

Vasaloppet is the world's oldest, biggest & longest ski race. The first race was in 1922 and the classic 90 km distance from Sälen to Mora was for a long time the only race. 

Today Vasaloppet winter week has nine different races over ten days, with various distances to suit all ages. Since 2009 we also arrange events in the summer for cycling, running and Nordic walking. Altogether our events in 2010 attracted a total of over 65,000 entries. Vasaloppet is jointly owned by Sälen's IF & IFK Mora. All surplus income from our events goes undeducted back to the owners' sports activities and to some 50 other associations who provide us with 3500 functionaries.
