Preparations for UppLoppet on June 6, 2026 is well underway, and we'd like to share a bit more about the vison and ambitions behind the event.


UppLoppet is organized by IF Mantra Sport, with the goal of creating a 3 km and 10 km race where running is combined with community, accessibility, and a vibrant overall experience. For us, it’s not primarily about times and placements, but about building an event where both participants and spectators feel involved.


A key part of the process is our collaboration with Uppsala Arenor och Fastigheter, who are a central partner in the development of UppLoppet. Together, we are creating the conditions for a well-organized and sustainable event, where the venue, logistics, and the experience surrounding the race are given just as much importance as the race itself.


The course is being planned to be accessible and inspiring for different types of runners, and in parallel with the race we are working on a program of side events designed to contribute to a lively atmosphere before, during, and after the finish.


In the coming period, we will present more information about:

  • the official course route and elevation profile. Preliminary courses are available now under 'Courses'

  • additional race-day activities, partnerships, and the schedule for the day


UppLoppet is something we are building together for the long term. Thank you for being part of our journey already. More information will be shared continuously, and for those who are already decided, registration is now open!



Kind Regards,

IF Mantra Sport Organizer of UppLoppet
