Åsane Løpskarusell is a local race series round held in the wooded hills of Ulsetåsen, in the Åsane district north of Bergen. On the day runners pick between a 5 km and a 10 km course that follow paths and forest tracks through the Ulsetåsen recreation area, so the ground is a mix of gravel, dirt and rock rather than sealed road. The February date puts the round in the Norwegian winter, with cold temperatures and the chance of snow or ice underfoot, so studded or grippy shoes are worth considering. Entries, start lists and results are handled through the organiser's EQ Timing page, which carries the confirmed start times and any last-minute changes.

It is a local race series in the Åsane district of Bergen. Each round is staged at a different time of year, and this one takes place at Ulsetåsen on Thursday 11 February 2027 with a 5 km and a 10 km option.
Both distances start and finish in the Ulsetåsen area on the same day. The 5 km suits anyone wanting a shorter winter outing on forest paths, while the 10 km adds a second loop of similar terrain for those chasing more distance.
February in Bergen can bring snow, ice or wet ground on the forest paths. Shoes with aggressive tread are a sensible choice, and some runners use studded shoes when conditions are icy. Check the organiser's page in the days before the race for any course or conditions update.
The race is based at Ulsetåsen in Åsane, north of Bergen city centre. The precise start area and warm-up location are confirmed on the organiser's EQ Timing event page before race day.
The event is registered through EQ Timing, the timing and results platform used by the organiser, which normally publishes finishing times and results after the race. The detailed timing arrangements are confirmed on that page.
