Gaudi Snowshoe Biathlon.

Target shooting and fast running are the premises in the biathlon. With us, the cross-country skis are exchanged with snowshoes and the fun of the movement is paramount. At the Snowshoe Biathlon of the Silberregion Karwendel, there are also great prizes up for grabs.

The snowshoe test festival is sustainable on the part of the tourism association and the Schiestlhof. The event was awarded as "GREEN EVENT TIROL basic".

We ask all visitors for an environmentally friendly journey by public transport. We recommend the use of the Regional bus line 8381 to stop Sportplatz. For the latest timetable information and all schedules, visit www.vvt.at. From 14:00 a shuttle to the train station Pill-Vomperbach is available. Registration is necessary until one hour before departure.
