Tofta skjutfält

Tofta skjutfält, Military training facility in Gotland, Sweden

Tofta skjutfält is a military training ground in Gotland spanning roughly 2,700 hectares with pine forests, sandy soil, and specialized zones for artillery, tank, and infantry exercises. The terrain is divided into areas that support different types of military training activities.

The Swedish Armed Forces began acquiring land here in 1898 and purchased it initially for the Gotland Artillery Regiment in 1899. The facility continued to expand with additional land through the 1990s.

The field contains the old farmsteads Nasume, Norrgårde and Rangvalds, known together as Nasumebygden, and the fishing hamlet Blåhäll, which once had barracks for the artillery regiment. From 1898 until 2023, the Gotland Grand National off-road motorcycle race was held here every November.

The range lies 8 km south of Visby and is an active military training area, so entry is only possible with permission from the Swedish Armed Forces. The Gotland Grand National off-road motorcycle race was held here every November until 2023, drawing spectators to the field.

The 2015 defence decision led to Fortifikationsverket receiving 1.6 billion kronor for expansion at Tofta. The first stage, over 15 buildings, is nearly finished, and a barracks for 240 people plus a military restaurant are planned for completion in 2025 and 2026.
