The 5-km-long lighted trail is popular all winter, and is lit up until 22.00hrs every evening. The Birkebeineren Ski Stadium is the ideal starting point for trips into the local mountains, and is connected to a 450-km long trail of cross-country tracks. The facility has an excellent area for young children to play on skis – a ski playground! Special cross-country and biathlon championships can be organized in either the Olympic tracks or the floodlit tracks.

An asphalted roller-ski trail has been built and may be used for training and competitions. The large open areas are ideal for events such as outdoor concerts.         Biathlon The Birkebeineren Ski Stadium has a complete year-round biathlon facility. Here you can organize a “biathlon” championship with or without skis. The competition takes place on a limited area of the biathlon stadium, with teams, relay exchanges and even penalty rounds. Everyone is able to shoot 5 rounds at the Olympic targets, and the excitement is in the rapidly changing positions of the various teams. This is an activity unlike any other, and the biathlon championships have been a great success. The biathlon stadium has 30 targets and a professional sound system.         Skistua Kafe Skistua Kafe is located at the Birkebeineren Ski Stadium between the cross-country and biathlon arenas. This charming café may be rented year-round for meals and parties for up to 40 persons. There are 2 changing rooms with showers in the basement.
