Ruhpolding - Europe's Biathlon Mecca

For years Ruhpolding has been host location to the international Biathlon World Cup of the IBU. Top-Biathletes from all over the world are training over the whole year in Ruhpolding thus preparing for the contest season in the renown Chiemgau Arena which was extended some years ago. For years biathlon sports and IBU World Cups, in particular, have been enjoying great popularity and a strong media interest. Thus Ruhpolding applied successfully as a World Cup location during the past years.

Besides the World Cup in Ruhpolding, there would take place national, German tournaments and military championships as well as junior events like the Junior World Championships on a regular basis. There, on the world cup runs in the biathlon arena, the best German and international biathletes are fighting for the national titles, because during their competitions the selection decision to pass for the World Cup in the winter season will be taken.

Every year there would be an attractive international supporting programme along the biathlon single-, sprint- and relay competitions.
