History
In the area where Svartåshanget is located, the Blizzard Cup parallel slalom competition was organised during Easter 1981. Participants included the biggest stars of alpine skiing at the time, including Ingemar Stenmark, Stig Strand, Steve Mahre and Bojan Križaj. The event was a huge success with around 18 000 visitors.
In 1986, an application was made to organise the World Championships in Klövsjö. In preparation for the application, the current section of the Svartåshanget was built, which measures almost 500 metres, has a drop of 200 metres and a steepest section of 38 degrees. Unfortunately, there was no World Cup in Klövsjö.
Today, Svartåshanget is Sweden's newest competition slope, approved for international competitions by FIS in autumn 2021.
