It's the ultimate test of Nordic skiing endurance!
The Great Glen Nordic 300 is a 300-minute cross country ski race. Borrowing from Great Glen Trails' signature summer mountain biking event, the 24 Hours of Great Glen, the goal of the competitors in the Great Glen Nordic 300 is to ski as many laps as possible in 300 minutes. First held in 2007, race organizers see the Great Glen Nordic 300 growing every year into one of the most prestigious ski challenges in New England.
Competitors may ski solo or in teams of two or four. Each team member must use the same technique: skate or classic. The course utilizes the rolls and twists and turns of the Great Glen Trails Nordic ski system at the base of Mt. Washington. We will have water and Powerade available at the Start/Finish/Lap area.
Prizes will be awarded to the fastest solo and teams in each technique.
