Last but not least...
the distance that was introduced 2022, the 15km + 6km, the LONG ENOUGH that is 21km!

Long Enough is a combination of Beautiful Enough and Short Enough - first the participants will do the 15km route in i.a. occasionally fairly unprotected terrains and open sea and then they do the 6km route that goes through lighter terrain and calmer water.
The distance is estimated to take from 2 (if you are very, very fast ) to 5,5 hours. Participants are recommended to have previously participated in swimrun races and / or are used to swimming in open water.
Long Enough has both start and finish at Käringsund Resort & Conference.
It is beautiful!
It is unique!
It is LONG ENOUGH!
It is simply awesome!

To compete or not to compete ?

In 2025 the Tour d´Archipedalo have no official timing, but an
internal Strava competition is created for those who want to compete.

Compete?
The race as a competition alternative is a combined road and time trial race that is primarily intended for the experienced cyclist who can keep going at a high pace all day.
The competitors start together at 7am and therefore have 2h 25min to complete the first etape. This means that the participants need to have an average speed of 30 km/h.

Not compete?
The race can also be enjoyed at a leisurely pace in our beautiful archipelago, without any competitive elements.
The exercisers can start actually how early they want and are responsible for making it to Svinö in time for the ferry to Föglö.

Otherwise the competition class and exercisers cycle together all day. In other words, the day is also perfect for a group where only some want to let the lactic acid and adrenaline flow while the others want to enjoy themselves with an overproduction of endorphins.

So WELCOME both winner skulls and enjoyers of life - you can do this together!

Let us have a closer look at the distances. First out is the SHORT ENOUGH 6km !

A couple of years ago we changed the distance for Short Enough from 8,5km to 6km, i.a. to get it a little shorter but the more beautiful and we succeed!

The Short Enough is now a beginner-friendly distance that consists of 5 stages of running ( 60m - 1930m, a total of 4970m) in a quite easy and really nice terrain and 4 stages of swimming (120m - 330m, a total of 940m) in calm waters!
Short Enough is perfect for i.a. swimrun rookies and also very suitable for JUNIORS.
The Short Enough 6km takes between 30 – 120 minutes to get through!

SHORT? BEAUTIFUL or LONG ENOUGH?

Today it´s exactly one month until Åland Swimrun 2024 --> it's starting to be time to choose your distance!

You have these amazing DISTANCES to choose from:

🏊‍♀️ Short Enough 6km is a fairly beginner-friendly distance where you run in a quite easy and really nice terrain and swim in calm waters!
Short Enough is perfect for i.a. swimrun rookies and also very suitable for juniors.

🏃 Beautiful Enough 15 km starts to get a bit tougher there, especially the swimming in sometimes fairly open sea means that the race can be a challenge!
The running will take part on both sandy roads, paths but also in the trackless forest terrain and along the western cliffs.

🏊‍♀️ Long Enough 21km is a combination of Short and Beautiful Enough which means a 21 km route through both easier and tougher terrain! Nothing that is intended for the beginner.

Regardless of the length and difficulty of the distances the Åland Swimrun – participants are promised a race that is Unique Enough for everyone – both for the experienced athlete but also for the curious exerciser.

Facts that might be nice to know about KÄRINGSUND!

The start and finish line and the competion center for both Käringsund Triathlon and Åland Swimrun is in Käringsund, a small idyllic village in the municipality Eckerö in the westernmost part of Åland.
From Eckerö is the shortest way from Åland to Sweden. The ferry Eckerö linjen goes from Grisslehamn in Sweden to Bergman in Eckerö, Åland in only 2 hours.
Käringsund is a bay and natural harbor that has become one of the most picturesque sights on the Åland Islands. Along the shores of this small bay the boathouses and boatsheds are lined up. These buildings are still in use, with locals coming here to take care of their boats and head out on the Baltic Sea.
Käringsund is famous for being one of the filming locations in 1966 for the Swedish TV-series “Vi på Saltkråkan“. The script was written by the Swedish writer of childrens’ books Astrid Lindgren.
In Käringsund you can also see some Nordic nature if you join Granberg Guesthouse safari tours. Red deers , roe deers, wild boars, ostriches and llamas can be seen during the tour.
At the Hunting and Fishing Museum (Ålands Jakt- och Fiskemuseum) located next to the boathouses you can learn more about historical tools and equipment related to hunting and fishing on the Åland Islands.

And last but definitely not least, in Käringsund you can this year again participate in Käringsund Triathlon that will be arranged 23-24.8 and Åland Swimrun 14.9😊

! MINI TRIATHLON - the highlight of the triathlon weekend!

All our distances and all our participants are all equally important but.....you rarely see more joy in sports than during the MINI TRIATHLON in Käringsund!
They go all in but without taking it bloody seriously and show a true joy and fighting spirit from start to finish!
It isn´t that important to take exactly the right route and/or round the right mark, especially not for the toddlers!
It is also not so important who starts first, or finishes first! Or finish at all! The most important thing is that you have fun all the way!

For the TODDLERS it´s approx. 20m swimming/ wading, 300m cycling and 300m running.
No timing and no age-limit.
They have their start on Saturday at 12.00

KIDS boys & girls 9-11 (born 2015 or later/ 2013-14)
will swim 100m, cycle 3km and then finally run 1km
They start on Saturday at kl. 14.00
