Ever since the days of Gunder Hägg in the 1940s, talented runners have trained in Vålådalen. In addition to trail running, there are opportunities for track intervals and running technique on the sports field, strength intervals on the marsh and hill intervals along the Interval Trail.
Training camps and weekends are organized throughout the season. We also have affordable offers if you want to organize your own training weekend.
