The Ski Classics Challengers event La Transjurassienne is a 50km long-distance race in freestyle technique and takes place this Sunday, February 12, in the Jura Mountains, France.
La Transjurassienne, scheduled initially for a 70km race and reduced to 50km this year, is one of France’s references for long-distance skiing events. This edition gathers around 4000 participants in the Jura Mountains, from Pro Tour athletes to recreational skiers, for a weekend of sport and entertainment.
The event celebrates its 44th edition, and 2023 can confirm its position as a major nordic skiing competition. The 50km course in skating technique, between Lamoura and Les Rousses, passes by postcard scenery and enjoys a festive atmosphere in the villages crossed by the race.
La Transju’, as the event is also called, offers classic technique events on Saturday – La Transju’ Marathon Classic 50km, La Transju’ Classic 25km and La Transju’ Expérience Classic 20km; and skating technique events on Sunday – La Transjurassienne 50km (Ski Classics Challengers), La Transju’ Marathon Skating 50km, La Transju’ Skating 25km, and La Transju’ Expérience Skating 20km.
