Tack vare ett antal eldsjälar fick Ersnäs ett elljusspår i mitten av 1970-talet. Här arrangerades en gång per säsong en internationell tävling som samlade dåtidens allra främsta skidlöpare bl.a. amerikanen Bill Kock. Kock var den förste som började använda skating i längdskidåkningen.

2. An illuminated ski track. Thanks to a few true enthusiasts, Ersnäs got an illuminated ski track in the mid 1970’s. During the next ten years, the village became well-known in cross-country skiing circles. Once a year, an international night ski race was held, attracting big names including Bill Kock from the United States who, incidentally, was the first to use skating in cross-country skiing.
