Cross country skiers can enjoy the fun of hassle-free point-to-point skiing
on the famous Birkebeiner Ski Trail by taking the bus.
Telemark Resort is sponsoring bus runs from the resort to the half-way rest
cabin at the County OO trail crossing. The bus will leave Telemark at 11 am
on Saturday, February 17th and will run constantly from 10 am to 2 pm on
Wednesday, February 21st, the last official trail training day before the
race. Skiers need a daily or season Telemark XC Trail Pass to ride.
Skiers who want to ski to Double O in the same direction as the race can do
so by leaving Telemark early enough to make it to the warming cabin by
11:45 am on Saturday the 17th or by 2:45 pm on Wednesday the 21st. If need
be they can board the bus at Double O without a pass and purchase one on
arrival at Telemark. Trail passes are available from 9 am to 4 pm at the
Ski Hut building just outside the lodge.
