Insurance europe

To compete in ÖTILLÖ events, each athlete needs to have a valid insurance for competing in Swimrun. We recommend you to conclude our European ÖTILLÖ Swimrun insurance. It is possible to buy this cover for single event only or for the entire Swimrun season; the season cover protects you for 16 Swimrun events in 2026.

The ÖTILLÖ Swimrun Insurance is a “Swimrun-Athletes-Insurance Program” with a recognized international Insurance Company. It offers a combined cover of a Personal Accident Insurance, Medical Expenses Abroad Insurance and Travel Cancellation Costs & Curtailment Insurance. The Insurance Coverage includes all direct travel to and from the moment the Insured Person(s) starts his/her journey from his/her home address until the day the Insured Person(s) returns to his/her home from the insured event venue.

It will also reimburse for Swimrun events participants fees as well as related travel costs booked through a travel company (incl. Airlines and Railway Companies) up to the maximum limit named in the Confirmation of Cover if you have to cancel your trip to the insured race you have signed up for unforeseen insured events. Insured events are for example death, bodily injury or illness of the Insured Person (Swimrun Athlete) or immediate relatives (family members). Please note that this insurance does not cover any transportation risks (e.g. cancellation, delay, failure, strike).

For insured persons with a permanent residence outside of Europe, the reimbursement will be paid out via Swimrun AG. Any bank charges shall be borne by the insured person.

This insurance covers only your own interests and does not include your team mate. However, in case your team mate has to cancel the planned Swimrun event due to e.g. serious accident/injury and/or unexpected serious illness, there is cover given for your own interest if you have no chance to take part in the insured event.

Please note that this is a short summary of coverage only and not legally binding. The Policy Documents and underlying Insurance Conditions are the only legally binding documents. Details of the policy with scope of cover and exclusions are found here.
