The precise course of the race is established right before the start to ensure that the finest parts of the ice are used. The course will be cleared of snow before starting time, in case of heavy snowfall.

Security
The course will be indicated with sticks if there is no snow. In case of snow the course will be ploughed. The ice on the indicated course is regularly controlled and security is only guaranteed within the borders of the course, therefore you should always follow the route of the course and directions of the race-officials.

Ice prods must be used by everyone!

Insurance
All participants will be insured through the Swedish Skate Association as part of the registration fee. Parcipitation in Ornäsrännet is at ones own risk.

Cold limit
Cold limit – 15ºC.

Refund
75 % of the registration fee will be refunded in case of a cancelled race unless the back-up day February 19 can be used instead.

Starting times for the different classes can be found below.
Participants without ski sticks or ice pick will start first in every class.
