Birken opens registrations with backup guarantee
Today our Norwegian friends have opened the registrations for the Birkebeinerrennet 2021 at the end of March.
The organizers are working and planning, that the Birken Festival can take place in a save way. If the race will take place on several days, with wave starts or individual start, with a limited starter’s field etc. we don’t know yet exactly. But the organizers will announce the final situation long enough before the race day.
Possible scenarios
- Wave start
- Individual start
- Several race days
- Limited starting field
- Virtual Race format on real track

And what if I the race will be cancelled?
The Birken organizers guarantee, that if the race has to be cancelled due to COVID19 or if you are not able to ski the race on the event-weekend because of a limited starting field or you are not allowed to enter the country, your registration will be transferred to Birkebeinerrennet 2022.
The earlier you register, the better. If there is a limited starting field, the prioritization will be based on the time of registration.
