The biggest cross-country skiing races in Europe go together to form the Euroloppet Tour. Each year more than 40,000 amateur skiers and leading athletes take part in the 16 events, which are spread 11 countries. Switzerland is represented with the International Goms Race, one of the most beautiful events on the tour. The special Obergoms ambience and magnificent trails provide a festival of cross-country skiing year in, year out. Starting in Blitzingen and finishing in Oberwald via Münster, the race attracts more than 2,000 skiers using both classic and skating techniques every year. The European Union of Cross-country Ski Marathons (EUC), the umbrella organisation that oversees the Euroloppet Series, brings European cross-country skiing enthusiasts together with the Euroloppet.
