There are no access to drinking water at start. 

There are toilets in the starting area.

 
You can deliver a small bag at the start. Those of you who are super fast may reach the finish line before the the luggage arrives.
Any traffic also affect when the luggage arrives. If you are in a hurry, you should consider not sending your bag to finish.
 
 
 
NO CUPS IN ECOTRAIL RACES
Remember to bring your own cup, for example a foldable cup in your pocket.No cups at finish either.
 
There is one support station, and it comes very early after the start, we have access to water approx 1km after start, and a sports drink from Fuel is also served.
 
 
 
IMPORTANT: 
When you get to Rådhusplassen/city town hall, there is approximately 1km left to the finish line. It can be crowded there, it is important that you pay attention and that you follow the rule that it is not allowed to wear headset/music.
If you have participated in previous years, please note that the route was changed last year. After Rådhusplassen, everyone must reach Akershus Fortress.
 
On the website there is a link to the trail map, it is a good idea to look at it - then you are prepared! Otherwise, the trail is marked with white arrows (chalk on asphalt), signs and trail guards and, in some places, yellow-red ribbons.
 
 
FINISH

Prize awards and photos top3 as soon as the first three in the men's and women's class have finished.
Seed bag medal for everyone.
 
Otherwise, there is outdoor and indoor seating and toilets at Vippa. There are no showers for the public, but many people jump into the fjord :)
 
 
Best of luck to you on Saturday 25 May - we look forward to seeing you at the finish line! :-)
