24MX Partners with Forza Orza for Sweden’s only hard enduro World Championship event

24MX has entered into a partnership with Forza Orza as an official sponsor, supporting one of the most demanding and fastest growing extreme enduro events in Northern Europe.

From August 20 to 22, 2026, Orsa will host the only Swedish round of the FIM Hard Enduro World Championship. For three days, the terrain around Grönklitt will become a proving ground for some of the best riders in the world.

The 2026 edition is expected to feature leading names including reigning world champion Manuel Lettenbichler, multi time champion Billy Bolt, the Brightmore brothers Mitchell and Ashton, Teodor Kabakchiev, and hard enduro legend Graham Jarvis. Their presence confirms the event’s position on the international stage.

What sets Forza Orza apart is not only the level of riders, but the way the event is built.

Alongside the world championship race, a classic enduro will run in parallel, with total participation expected to reach around 1000 riders. Professional athletes and amateur riders will share the same environment, riding the same terrain under the same conditions. This combination creates both depth at the top level and accessibility for a much wider group of participants.

The hard enduro course is central to the event. Developed together with experienced course designer Mike Skinner, it is designed to be demanding from start to finish. Natural obstacles, elevation changes and technical sections are combined into a layout that evolves throughout the race. As the terrain breaks down, riders are forced to adapt, search for new lines and fight for progression. It is a course where consistency and decision making are as important as speed.

At the same time, the course is built to be experienced. The action is close, visible and intense, allowing spectators to follow the riders as they work through the most difficult sections and see the difference between the best and the rest.

Alongside it, the classic enduro course offers a different experience. Set in the landscape of Orsa Grönklitt, it is designed to be accessible while still delivering a meaningful challenge. It allows a broader range of riders to take part in the same event and experience the same environment.

The event is structured over several days, with shakedown sessions, prolog racing, finals, rider interactions and evening activities. This creates a complete weekend that brings together competition, community and the wider culture of the sport.

As part of the partnership, 24MX will support the event with essential infrastructure and rider focused equipment, including tents, pit mats, marking tape and prizes. The contribution is practical and directly linked to how the event is delivered on the ground.

Through its involvement in Forza Orza, 24MX continues to support events that reflect the core of the sport, combining technical riding, demanding conditions and a strong connection to the rider community.
