Experience the ultimate challenge of the A+ 100-mile race, passing through 15 stunning nature reserves and two mountains. Although the terrain is relatively flat, this race is incredibly demanding. The starting point is Höganäs, followed by a prologue to Mölle and the mythical Kullaberg, birthplace of the llegendary Kullamannen. Prepare to push yourself to the limit as you take on the technical single tracks on the beautiful Kullaberg Mountain, one of Sweden's most popular nature reserves.
After 66 kilometres, you can recharge with a hearty bowl of hot soup before continuing north towards Ängelholm and Torekov, ultimately reaching the finish line in Båstad. With a DNF rate of 40-60%, this race is not for the faint-hearted. November in Sweden brings challenging Scandinavian coastal weather, southwesterly gales, and more darkness than daylight. Nevertheless, participants return year after year for the unparalleled experience.
If you're inspired by the legend of Kullamannen and possess the right spirit, this race will test and reward you. Overcoming adverse conditions leads to great victories, and everyone who stands on the start line is already a hero, gaining an experience that will last a lifetime. Good luck to all the challengers of Kullamannen.
