Are you keen to try cross-country skiing, or do you have some previous experience and want some company and a few technical tips? Then you are welcome to join us when we go for a beginner-friendly training session at Kap. (Provided the snow and tracks are still there, of course.)

We will go through the basics of cross-country skiing and then you can try skiing around a little on your own at the ski trail at Kap.
The session is primarily aimed at those who want to try cross-country skiing for the first time or who do not have much previous experience, but you are of course welcome to join in and enjoy the company of other students at a training session even if you are an experienced skier.
You need to have or arrange your own equipment, including skis, boots and poles. If you don't have your own, you can borrow some free of charge from Fritidsbanken.
Feel free to bring something warm to drink in a thermos and something to snack on.
Registration
Maximum ten participants. You can register for the session marked ‘Cross-country skiing’ in Campus1477's booking system, either on our website or in our GoActive app. You must be a member to register. If you are not already a member, you can become a free ‘Student Sports Member’.
If the places are full, you are of course welcome to come to Kap and ski on your own and with the rest of us.
The activity is a collaboration between Campus1477 and Student Health Service at Uppsala University. Read more about the Student Health Service's activities.
