Cross-country skiing : 50 days to go until the World Cup
The countdown is on : in 50 days’ time, the world’s best cross-country skiers will come together for the opening of the new World Cup season on 28 November in Ruka (Finland).
The cross-country skiers will therefore make their comeback in Ruka (Finland). They will then head for Trondheim (Norway), the scene of the last World Championships, and Davos (Switzerland).
At the end of the year, the Tour de Ski will be contested between Toblach (Italy) and Val di Fiemme (Italy). Before the Milan/Cortina 2026 Olympic Games, stages in Oberhof (Germany) and Goms (Switzerland) are scheduled for the end of January.
In March, world cups are scheduled in Falun (Sweden), Lahti (Finland), Drammen (Norway), Oslo-Holmenkollen (Norway) before the grand final in Lake Placid (USA).
