We are now in the second half of February, and a large majority of the 2025/2026 Ski Classics Challengers events have already been completed across Europe, Asia, and North America.
Many skiers may already have secured the qualification for the Ski Classics Grand Finale Summit 2 Senja, without even realizing it.
Now is the time to check.
To qualify via Ski Classics Challengers, you need:
- At least two Ski Classics Challengers
- To finish within 50% of the winner’s time in each race
Qualification via Pro Tour Events
You can also qualify through Ski Classics Pro Tour events; these four remain:
- Vasaloppet
- Birkebeinerrennet
- Marcialonga Bodø – register here!
- Reistadløpet – Please note! This event is the day before the Grand Finale Summit 2 Senja.
If you complete one of these events, you are qualified if you finish within 50% of the winner’s time.
But with so many events already completed, the key message is simple: You may already be qualified.
