The International Gommerlauf, the highlight of the Goms calendarof events, is arousing race fever withhin cross-country skiers. Racefever among the youngest participants in one of the exciting races of Mini-Gommerlauf or of the Leonteq Biathlon Cup. Race fever just as well among the numerous participants in the marathon or half marathon.
Starting point as well as finish at the Nordic Centre, an inviting restaurant and the Gommerlauf Village promise another great cross country spectacle. The Sunday ride with the rolling stand is unique at such public races.
Numerous loyal sponsors and partners have been supporting the International Gommerlauf for years. Thank you very much! Likewise,we want to thank all those reliable helpers. Only thanks to this great interaction such a race can be successfully hosted.
The marathon course is only available during the Gommerlauf weekend.

Safety guidelines
The use of the trails is at your own risk. Obergoms Tourismus AG and Loipe Goms disclaim all liability and assume no responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of the information on this website.
Use only marked trails and follow all markings and signs - for your own safety, for the protection of the landscape and in respect of wildlife.
Be considerate towards other cross-country skiers. Every cross-country skier, especially on downhill runs, must adapt speed and behaviour to his ability and visibility. In classic running tracks and on the piste for free running technique, you run on the right side of the piste with an appropriate safety distance to the front runner. If you stop, you step out of the cross-country ski run. Assistance in case of accidents is a matter of course. To alert the rescue service, dial No. 144.
Weather conditions in the mountains can change very quickly and without warning. Appropriate clothing is very important.
The winter sports report www.goms.ch/en/winter-sports-report keeps you informed about the current conditions (avalanche danger, cross-country skiing, winter hiking trails, snow trails and road conditions).
