01 / EVENT OVERVIEW
What defines this edition.
The current event heading, regulations and actual RaceResult 2027 portal agree on the edition date. The races use the Langlaufzentrum Gantrisch network, with the village and start/finish on the Panzerplatte. Skating is permitted and classic technique is also allowed. Programme times are venue-local Europe/Zurich, CET (UTC+01:00); the event announcement does not establish today’s trail opening.
The organiser describes a common stadium start, descending sections around Wasserscheide, a longer circuit via the Pfyffe area and a short-race return via Schüpfegrön. Conflicting sources: Midi is 2.58 km in the rules introduction and 2.5 km in its distance list. Unconfirmed: final snow-dependent alignment, markings and revised distances. No organiser map artwork, GPX or race line is copied or embedded.
Historical: the genuine Arkelin photograph shows Berghaus Gurnigel on 23 July 2023, in summer. This is the building named on the travel page, not a photograph of the 2027 race, its route, the Panzerplatte start or present skiing conditions.
Conflicting sources: the rules instead describe Mini up to 12, Midi up to 14 and Maxi up to 16. Confirm the correct birth-year category and any minimum age with the organiser before paying.
The organiser describes a licence-free race for healthy, trained entrants.

Conflicting sources: the rules instead describe Mini up to 12, Midi up to 14 and Maxi up to 16. Confirm the correct birth-year category and any minimum age with the organiser before paying.

Children including Maxi are listed at CHF 10 through 29 January, then CHF 15; the rules add 5% online fees.

The pin is not the gate.
The rounded point follows the Berghaus marker embedded in the organiser’s travel page. The race village and Panzerplatte start/finish are described separately, about 300–350 metres away. This is an arrival-planning reference, not a surveyed race start, parking allocation, accessible entrance or course line.
The organiser names Berghaus Gurnigel for bib collection, information and changing rooms, with the village and start/finish about 300–350 metres away on the Panzerplatte. Warm food and drinks are listed at the village. Unconfirmed: final service hours, baggage arrangements, step-free paths, accessible toilets and individual assistance.
The rules say parking is limited, charged separately and prohibited before 08:00 because overnight parking is banned. A walk of up to 500 metres may be needed. Unconfirmed: exact parking fee, capacity, winter-road condition and a guaranteed allocated space.
Conflicting sources: the regulations say there is no direct public-transport connection, while the travel page describes a PostBus to Gurnigel Berghaus or Stierenhütte. Unconfirmed: the actual 31 January 2027 outward and final return timetable, shuttle provision and any promise to delay starts after a bus delay. Confirm both journeys and arrange a fallback; the village closing time is not a last-bus time.
