Right now, we have entries from 12 different countries for Åredraget. That’s pretty big 😍 It shows that sled dog sport is still very much alive. That people are willing to travel far, train hard, and stand on the start line in mountain wind and cold, because this truly means something. There will be many different languages spoken, but we all share the same respect for the dogs, the nature, and the craft behind a real race.

Over the past few days we’ve had a proper snowfall, and now the cold has arrived – exactly what we need to secure all water crossings ahead of Åredraget in March. Conditions are shaping up very well.

Unique opportunity for new mushers – personal coaching with Marlene Hällström

Åredraget keeps growing, and this year we’re excited to introduce something brand new – the 5 km Sprint! A fast, fun, and spectator-friendly race for anyone who wants to experience the atmosphere and the joy of sled dog sports, without entering the main competition.

When darkness falls and headlamps light up the trail, the air at the checkpoint fills with the smell of something warm, smoky, and freshly made. That’s Ånn Wheels, setting up their outdoor kitchen right in the middle of the forest.

With the discount code Aredraget2026, all participants and visitors receive 10% off their stay. By using the code, you’ll also get the chance to reserve a seat at our festive Åredraget Banquet, open for handlers, family, and friends.

Now you can share the Åredraget experience together with a friend or family member. Two drivers, one team, and twice the joy on the trail.

The very first day of registration is behind us and we already have 9 participants signed up from Germany, Sweden, France, and Austria!

Today we celebrate our race director Sven on his birthday! 🥳 To mark the occasion, we’re opening registration for Åredraget 2026 starting today.

The registration för 2026 is opening september 18
