6 lakes – 6 sjöar

Nice, friendly and helpful functionaries. Great nature with varying types. Toughest race to date, but enjoyed it to the end

Phenomenal event... by far the best marathon I've ran yet! Volunteer staff were incredibly insightful and friendly, the route was breathtaking, the organisation was incredible. Well done to the organisers!

The aid stations were littered with a plethora of different aids and sustenance.

Very well organized and lovely to run through the forest witt great view of the different lakes. Sometimes challenging with the stones and roots but great with varying terrain.

Super organization, cheerful crowds, amazing location, super nice race!

Well organized around the race and tip top service in the race👍

Great roads around the 6-Lakes and super service for the Runners👌

Great event, amazing location and love the low key set-up. It is more of a mix btw trail and “normal” marathon. Should add min 30 min to your normal Marathon time - which is good to know beforehand.

Actual distance coveres was 44+ km

Tolle Organisation und super Stimmung in malerischer Landschaft. Ich freue mich schon aufs nächste jahr

It was the first time i have ever participated on this event. The organisation was excellent, and i loved the route. It was a bit hilly, but as we were not a huge crowd, we managed to run comfortably with enough space, without stopping on the narrow roads. The environment is very nice.

nice organization, nature, people thank you

I was born and raised in the heart of NYC, so I am not at all used to seeing so much nature up close! Everyone else laughed, but I was genuinely excited to see cows for the FIRST time face to face. The forests were BEAUTIFUL, and the lakes were pristine. Although there was some mud on the course, the weather overall was excellent. Racing in NYC I am used to seeing multiple thousands of runners, but this was a much smaller event and I felt it was organized well considering there were so many people internationally. I was nervous at first and switched to do the half marathon, but then changed my mind on the day of to do the marathon, and Waia was exceptional with helping me switch back multiple times without issue. The course itself I felt was marked VERY well--each time I reached a ribbon, the next one was well within sight distance. I did get lost once, but that was my fault because I was distracted by a farm and not focusing on where the next ribbon was haha. I took my time with the course because there were some technical parts on the trail that you needed to be very careful with rocks and tree roots that could snag your ankle. I saw foragers with baskets picking berries and mushrooms. I saw sheep, horses, and giant mushrooms all around. The smell of nature in the air was unforgettable. The kindness of the race staff at each aid station was very welcoming--and they were also placed at good distances from each other. I absolutely love the environmentally friendly aspect of the race as well--that's a big part of what drew me to fly across the world to run it in the first place! It was the most beautiful run I have done in my life, and I am looking forward to doing it again! My last marathon experience was the complete opposite experience and almost destroyed my inspiration for running completely. Thank you 6 Lakes for reinvigorating my love for running and inspiring me to continue running further than I've ever dreamed!

Be careful in the first 10km in the forest, there were plenty of places you could accidentally twist your ankle! Take your time and enjoy the beautiful nature! :)

Great route, well organized race, cutest people in the world, amazing environment. Not a fast route, enjoy the ride and the scenery. Mostly gravel, little asphalt, little mud :) Trail running shoes definitely.

noce track, refreshment each 3 km, not track for time records

10% asfalt, rest: grass, gravel, roots, swamp etc :) but nice, forget for fast time and enjoy track

Such a wonderful day. Very well organised and post race drinks and snacks we available FOC. I was able to change my distance the day before for no charge or hassle.

Beautiful route , lots of energy stations and nice atmosphere!

It was well organised and a very nice location - not too far from Stockholm. For the first 9km it was a beautiful course and a very nice run, with the only minor complaint being that maybe the signs/ribbons could have been slightly better as people did go the wrong way occasionally. However the last 1.5km was horrific, we ran across a field with very soft ground (almost like a beach) and lots of divets/holes. I like a challenging run but this was dangerous, it's a miracle none of us were injured

A pretty tough course with lots of minor hills (nothing crazy steep). One section goes through a field with very soft ground which was horrible/dangerous and then the end part heads through the forest which would have been great for hiking but was not really suitable for running
