Ultravasan is an annual ultramarathon and trail run in Sweden, which was hosted for the first time in 2014 following the course of the ski race Vasaloppet. The 90 km race is the largest ultramarathon race in Sweden, and attracts more participants than the 45 km event.^[1]

The race is arranged on two distances:

• Ultravasan 90: 92 km, start in Sälen and goal in Mora, following the same trail as Vasaloppet. The race was originally 90 km, but after some modifications to the course in 2023, the course is now 92 km.
• Ultravasan 45: 45 km, start in Oxberg and goal in Mora, following the second half of the Vasaloppet trail.^[2]

The races are part of the Vasaloppet Summer Week, along with the bike races CykelVasan and the shorter running races TrailVasan.

In 2024, Norwegian former crosscountry skier Laila Kveli won Ultravasan 90 and became the first athlete to win both the skiing race and the running race.
