Guidelines for Support Crews
Cheering is allowed and even encouraged!
As a reminder, any other assistance or support for competitors is only permitted at the official aid stations. We follow the trail runner’s code of conduct. Of course, participants who have announced that they are withdrawing from the race may be helped.
Please avoid using private cars around the Jounin Kauppa area in Äkäslompolo, as parking spaces are limited. We encourage everyone to move around the village on foot or by bike.
