Description 40km course
Start: 40 km
At 12:00 the start will be from Ekaparken in Bengtsfors.
Stage 1: 6 km
The start will go south and round the Bengtsbrohöljen lake to come back up to the center of Bengtsfors and the lock area and the first lift.
Lift 1: 140 meters
The lift at the lock area is spectator-friendly and only a few hundred meters from the start and finish area.
Lift and loading will take place from the pier
Here is the first change for the relay class.
Stage 2: 19 km
Now the course will go around central Bengtsfors before turning north along Lelång. After a couple of kilometers the course will turn west towards the next lake, Ärtingen. The passage to Ärtingen will go through a small road tunnel so no lift is needed here.
The course will follow the lake and the shore counterclockwise before it is time for the second lift.
Lift 2: 100 meters
At the second lift there is also the second depot. The lift is 100 meters and it is a popular spectator spot. Lift and lay-up from the beach
Here is the second change for the relay class.
Stage 3: 9 km
The course continues in Ärtingen before passing the road tunnel again and returning to Lelång and aiming for Bengtsfors again.
Lift 3: 140 meters
The location is the same as the first lift but now in the other direction.
Here is the third change for the relay class.
Stage 4: 6 km
Now you have passed the last lift and you only have 6 km left before you arrive at the finish line at Eka-parken in Bengtsfors. Here there are good opportunities for the audience to follow you to the finish line, both on foot and by bike!
Finish.
When you arrive back at Ekaparken you will have put 40 km of paddling behind you and hopefully a sporting memory for life.
