Hector ALS Challenge
Thank you to everyone who participated in the Hector ALS Challenge 2025!
This year's edition of the event took place on March 30, 2025 and was a great success. Many thanks to everyone who participated and contributed to the fundraising now exceeding an impressive one million kronor.
– I feel incredibly grateful and proud of what we have achieved. That we, together with just having fun on skis, have managed to raise so much money, something that actually makes a big difference for research, makes my heart warm and teary-eyed. Thank you to Kungsberget, to everyone who comes and skis, thank you to everyone who gets involved in the competition and all of you who are involved and contribute! You are fantastic! I look forward to carrying this tradition forward. says Sara Hector.
Hector ALS Challenge – a folk festival for all skiers!
Hector ALS Challenge is an unforgettable day on the snow where everyone is invited! During the day, a large charity race is arranged where one against one skiers ski parallel to each other. There is room for both young and old – regardless of how much experience you have of standing on a pair of skis. It is the joy of skiing that is in focus! During the day, you also have the chance to challenge the world champion, and the initiator of the event, Sara Hector, to see how you stack up against an Olympic gold medalist. In the finish area, you will also find several sponsors who are involved and contribute to a magical day where we all have the same goal – to fight ALS with joy.
The participation fee goes directly to the research for ALS.
Registration is done on site.
Sara Hector, initiator of the fundraiser
With an Olympic gold medal and several World Cup titles under her belt, Sara Hector is not only one of Sweden's most prominent alpine stars but also a committed advocate for ALS research. For several years, her mother has been fighting ALS, which became the driving force behind her desire to make a difference. Sara's personal relationship with the disease led her to choose to start the Hector ALS Challenge in 2019, a parallel slalom competition that aims to support research into the disease. Since its inception, we have collectively raised over 1 million kronor.
