Ötillö Swimrun World Championship 2026

Want a race that smells of sea spray, granite, and adventure, between land and sea? The Ötillö SwimRun World Championship in Sandhamn is the postcard that makes you sweat just enough 🌊.

Here, in Stockholm County (on the Värmdö Municipality side), you play life-size island-hopping: you alternate between stretches over rocks, coastal trails, and crossings in clear water that wakes you up better than a strong espresso 🧭.

After the race, stay in the area—it’s worth it: take a stroll around the Port of Sandhamn for the boats-and-colorful-houses vibe, head out to Trouville for a barefoot walk, and go fill your lungs on Telegrafberget for the viewpoint. You can also enjoy the area near Sandhamns Kapell and finish with a sunset on the rocks—the romantic recovery version, as a duo or with the family 🌅.
