Vånga Mountain Xtreme 2026

Vånga Mountain Xtreme is a trail running series held in Villands Vånga, Skåne, Sweden. It offers three race distances: 8 km, 16 km, and 40 km. These distances involve 300, 600, and 1500 metres of elevation gain, respectively. Even the shortest race is designed around hills, not simple forest paths. The event takes place in autumn and is linked with Vångabygdens Skördefest. FK Göingarna and Pan-Kristianstad are involved in its organization. The course leads participants up the steep Vångabacken and then onto winding trails surrounding Vångaberget. Runners will encounter wild terrain, small tranquil ponds, and deep stone quarries. The 8 km course crosses different aspects of the mountain, while the 16 km course covers these twice, both featuring challenging ascents and descents. The series also features VMX Kids, offering free on-site registration for children, ensuring the event caters to more than just experienced trail runners aiming for the longer mountain courses.
