The Keskinada Loppet cross-country ski race first came on to the scene in 1978 under the name of "Rivière rouge"(Red River). It took place in Quebec' s Lachine region approximately one hundred kilometres north-east from the Gatineau Park. The race consisted of two events, a 55 km and a 35 km race. This established The Rivière Rouge as Canada's largest cross-country ski event. Eventually the equipment and support services became inadequate for the growing ski race. In 1982 the Rivière Rouge moved to the Gatineau Park in the northern part of Hull, Quebec. With this move, the race was also re-baptised the "Gatineau 55". In 1989, the Gatineau 55 replaced its 35 km event with a 25 km freestyle race and a 25 km classic race. In 1996 the three events officially became the "Keskinada Loppet", a name that deserves some explination : Ke for Quebec, SKI for cross-country skiing, and NADA for Canada. The Word "Loppet" is of scandinavian origin for "large gathering". 1, record 2, English, - Keskinada%20Loppet

C'est en 1978 qu'est organisée pour la première fois la Keskinada Loppet sous le nom «Rivière Rouge». Elle a lieu dans la région de Lachute, à une centaine de kilomètres au Nord-Est du Parc de la Gatineau. La course compte un parcours de 55 km et une randonnée de 35 km; elle se positionne déjà comme le plus gros événement de ski de fond au Canada. Mais les équipements de support et les services annexes du site se révèlent inadéquats car la course prend de plus en plus d'ampleur. Ainsi, en 1982 la Rivière Rouge est transférée dans le Parc de la Gatineau au nord de la ville de Hull. De plus elle est sanctionnée d'une nouvelle appellation la Gatineau 55. En 1989, la Gatineau 55 remplace l'épreuve de 35 km par 2 courses moins longues : un 25 km style classic et un 25 km style libre, tout en conservant le parcours de 55 km. En 1996 la course est rebaptisée une nouvelle fois et devient «la Keskinada Loppet». Cela mérite une petite explication! : Ke pour Québec, SKI pour le ski de fond et NADA pour Canada. «Loppet» signifie «grand rassemblement» en scandinave. 1, record 2, French, - Keskinada%20Loppet
