Overview

Vinterveko is the winter edition of Ekstremsportveko. We host competitions and gatherings for athletes in freeride, big air, skydiving, paragliding, speedriding, kiting and back country skiing. In the middle of March athletes come to Voss to compete and challenge themselves in the elements. However, competitions are not always central for all the sports. The sharing of knowledge, when hundreds of top athletes are gathering, is important.

If you’re not an athlete, you can watch the spectacular sport program close up, or just hang out and enjoy the festival program and the social aspect of the festival.

Like Ekstremsportveko, Vinterveko is owned by the non-profit organization “The Ekstreme Voss Foundation.” Voss Rafting Club, Voss Kayak Club, Voss Hang and Paraglider Club and Skydive Voss are the four local clubs who represent Ekstreme Voss. Two fulltime positions are needed to administrate the organisation all year round. In addition to this, Vinterveko rely heavily on positive and hard working volunteers.
