Horgi Ned

Monday 25.06, from Lønahorgi to Strandaleva

The pre-registration starts the 7th of May! Register to Torkel: horgined@gmail.com 

Horgi ned (Lønahorgi Down) is an untraditional thriatlon, where we´ve swapped running with downhill skiing, road biking with downhill biking and swimming with white water kayaking. 

Part 1- Skiing
The competition starts at Lønahorgi (1400 metres above sea level), one of the highest mountains around Voss. The first part of the competition is downhill skiing from Lønahorgi down a marked track to Afdalsstølen. As the competition is held in June, this part of the competition depends on the snow conditions in the area.

Part 2 - Biking
After you´ve finished skiing at Afdalsstøen (800 metres above sea level), you have to quickly change your gear and jump on a mountain bike. From here you have to bike a medium technical track to Strandaelva.

Part 3 - Kayaking
Get into your smelly kayaking gear at Strandaelva. The kayaking section starts here and ends by the rapid "Kåre". At a medium water level the hardest rapids on this section is grade 4, thus you have to be an intermediate/expert kayaker with a reliable roll.

This competition is a highlight for many of the athletes during Ekstremsportveko.You may enter the competition in two ways:
1. Individually (you complete all parts of the competition on your own)
2. Team competition (one skier, one biker, one kayaker)
