Join Knarvikmila - The Great Fjord Run
Knarvikmila is Norway's most magnificent running event. This year, KnarvikMila takes place at the beginning September.
KnarvikMila is more than one race and more than a single distance. It is also more than a sports event. This is a week filled with cultural and sports events.
See our programme for more information and take a look at our different distances. KnarvikMila was founded in 1982 by initiator and enthusiast Helge Brekke and is arranged by the athletic association FIL-AKS77. Since 1982, thousands of feet have run along roads and tracks in Knarvik for a week every autumn. In 2019, 500 volunteers worked to create a memorable event for 7000 participants.
Without a group of volunteers extending far beyond the members of the athletic association it would be impossible to pull off the event that KnarvikMila has become: a whole week of activities including a conference, concerts and trade fair.
Course Highlights
The route is traffic-free. It starts at Knarvik Stadion and includes a crossing of Hagelsundbrua (bridge).
Enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way. This distance has good national and international participation and
is Haile Gebrselassie’s favourite.
