Saturday 29/8 - 2026
Join the EX EDSVIKEN – three races in one day just outside Stockholm. Suitable for everyone from beginners to elite athletes set in beautiful castle settings.
Experience EX EDSVIKEN Swimrun, a unique race combining swimming and running in the beautiful castle surroundings of Edsbergs Castle and Ulriksdal Castle, just outside Stockholm. Designed for beginners and elite athletes alike, the event offers a full day of challenge, speed, and camaraderie.'
Choose from three distances: EX LONG 24K for a serious challenge with 19 km running and 5 km swimming, EX SHORT 14K for a fast, intense race with 11 km running and 3 km swimming or EX FIVE 5K ideal for first-time Swimrunners with shorter, accessible sections.
After the finish, enjoy the After Swimrun Party with pizza, coffee, and the chance to connect with the Swimrun community. EX EDSVIKEN Swimrun is more than a race—it’s an unforgettable day of sport, nature, and friendship.
In 2026, we are launching the EX Swimrun Runmarö – a unique race in the heart of the Stockholm archipelago early in the season, featuring both warm lakes and crystal-clear sea swims.
Choose between SHORT (approx. 14 km) and LONG (approx. 24 km) and challenge yourself through Runmarö’s spectacular landscapes. The start takes place at the cozy Svängen’s Krog, where both locals and visitors gather for food, drinks, and a great atmosphere before and after the races.
Half the price – twice as warm – three times the love!
Sweden's National Day 6/6 - 2026
Safari Race, Super Safari & Safari Tour
We love the adventurous spirit of Safari and offer several different concepts where you, together with others, will experience a challenging and pure form of Swimrun. From a point chase in Northern Stockholm during the Super Safari, to a completely unique experience at the outer edge of the Stockholm Archipelago during the EX Safari Tour or EX Safari Race.
Adventure, community, and experience-based Swimrun!
In 2021, we launched the world's first Swimrun Supersprint. An extremely fast and explosive race on a 1.2 km short course in northern Edsviken. The race is decided in intense elimination heats until this year's Swimrun Supersprint champion is crowned.
At the starting line, invited elite athletes, including several world champions, stand side by side with specially invited wild cards. Through time trials in the morning, those who wish can earn a spot on the starting line.
TBA 2026
"EX has found a winning concept and will raise the bar and inspire other athletes to join in on the fun."
