CROSS-COUNTRY & BIATHLON TEST DAYS

These were the cross-country skiing & biathlon test days 2025 in Trins in the Gschnitztal!

Excellent cross-country skiing in the Gschnitztal valley
The mountaineering village of Gschnitztal is a true paradise for cross-country skiers. In total, there are around 40 km of trails in this valley between Trins and Steinach, half of which are for classic style and half for skating.

The trails are mainly easy to moderate in difficulty and are free to use for locals and guests. The wonderful backdrop of the Gschnitztal valley with the impressive view to the end of the valley, which cross-country skiers have in front of their eyes as they enter the valley, is particularly worthy of mention. It is also a very snow-sure area, especially at the back of the valley.

Cross-country & biathlon test days
In mid-January, a cross-country skiing & biathlon station will be set up at the Liftstüberl in Trins, where test equipment for adults and children will be available for hire, both for classic and skating styles.

Cross-country skiing instructors are also available to offer technique courses for beginners and advanced skiers. Waxing courses and information on new equipment are also part of the repertoire.
In order to make cross-country skiing appealing to young athletes, a cross-country course is set up where children can learn about cross-country skiing in a playful way. Of course, there will also be helpful tips and instruction for the little ones.
