The purpose of this study was to investigate the conditions for the school subject of physical education and health to be more culturally inclusive. This was done examining a case study focusing one teacher's practice of friluftsliv of cross-country ski race with a multicultural student group in elementary school. The study used qualitative methods consisting of two semi-structured interviews with the teacher, a movie of the preparations and implementation of the ski race and newspaper articles written about the race. The empirical findings were analyzed using thematic content analysis. The results were analyzed using social justice theory and Bourdieu's theory of capital to understand how the teacher adapted the practice to become more culturally inclusive. The study showed that the project of the ski race did not reach the whole way of including the multicultural student group. However, the teacher's reasoning regarding adaptation of the tuition of friluftsliv to a multicultural student group goes in line with previous research. The main problem can be understood as a dilemma that the doxa of friluftsliv in general does not fit with an inclusive school-based friluftsliv.
