Worldloppet

Completing a Worldloppet race is a remarkable achievement and worthy of documenting! A Worldloppet Passport is a personal document, in which every completed Worldloppet race should be registered. The official Worldloppet Passport contains a special page for each event in the Worldloppet series. After completing a Worldloppet race, the skier should ask for the official stamp of this event at the race office.  A stamp in the Worldloppet Passport is the evidence of the completed race.  Collecting of Worldloppet stamps is an additional motivation to practice cross-country skiing and to travel to Worldloppet countries.  Today there are more than 18,000 Worldloppet passport holders from all over the world.  Completion of 10 Worldloppet Events makes one a Worldloppet Master!

Purchase your Worldloppet Passport from the Birkie Office, by clicking HERE.
Cost for the passports is $43 USD. and will be mailed automatically, unless otherwise requested to pick up in the Birkie Office or during Events.
Passports are stamped in the Birkie Office at 10527 Main Street, Hayward, WI.

After completing WL races in 10 different countries, at least one of them on another continent outside of Europe, the skier will be recognized as a Worldloppet Master (WL Master). 

• WL Gold Master, if completed 10 WL main races and,
• WL Silver Master, if completed 10 WL short or main races

All are welcome to join Worldloppet Skiers, delegates from other Worldloppet competitions, and honored guests at the Worldloppet Breakfast on Friday morning of Birkie week. The breakfast is an informal, European-style buffet.
