Here you will find trails of all levels of difficulty. The Alpenbad A6 trail is blue (easy), the Waldloipe B11 trail is red (medium) and the Plaik C9 trail is difficult (black).

This trail is prepared in November with snow from the previous year. The snow comes from a large depot at our cross-country ski center. The trail is approx. 2 km long and has also been equipped with snow cannons since this year.

In principle, theFIS rules of conduct for cross-country skiers, which are similar to the rules for road traffic.

5.1 Consideration for others: All cross-country skiers must behave in such a way that they do not endanger or harm others.

5.2 Signalization, running direction and running technique: Markings and signals (signs) must be observed. On cross-country ski trails and pistes, skiers must ski in the direction and using the technique indicated.

5.3 Choice of track and piste: On double and multiple tracks, the right-hand track must be used. Cross-country skiers in groups must ski in the right-hand lane one behind the other. In free skiing technique, skiers must ski on the right-hand side of the piste.

5.4 Overtaking: Overtaking is permitted on the right or left. The skier in front does not need to take evasive action. However, he should give way if he can do so safely.

5.5 Oncoming traffic: In the event of an encounter, everyone must give way to the right. The downhill skier has priority

5.6 Stock guidance: When overtaking, being overtaken and during encounters, poles must be held close to the body.

5.7 Adaptation of speed to the conditions: every cross-country skier must adapt their speed and behavior to their ability, the terrain conditions, traffic density and visibility, especially on downhill sections. They must maintain a sufficient safety distance from the skier in front. If necessary, he must drop in order to prevent a collision.

5.8 Keeping the cross-country ski trails and pistes clear: Anyone who stops must leave the trail/piste. A fallen cross-country skier must clear the trail/piste as quickly as possible.

5.9 Assistance: In the event of an accident, everyone is obliged to provide assistance.

5.10 Litter: Cross-country skiers must not leave any waste on the trail or in the terrain.

We organize the grouping in advance according to the parents' assessment (beginners, slightly advanced, advanced) and this for the classic technique and for skating. During the lesson, the instructors then check whether the children fit together and, if necessary, swap pupils. Normally, the division is fixed after the first lesson.

The children's courses are for children aged 6-14. We recommend private lessons for younger or older children.

A child can start skating as soon as the smallest skating shoes fit, which is size 32, but should have previous experience in the classic technique.

As soon as the child can walk independently, it can also learn to cross-country ski. Only the shoes need to fit. The smallest size is 25.

We shoot with the original biathlon weapons (small caliber). Shooting with laser or air guns is also possible in private lessons on request.

From the age of 14 and a height of 140 cm, children are allowed to shoot with small caliber. However, younger children can use laser or air guns in private lessons.

We have our own shooting range behind the sports field, at the start of the "Plaik" trail. This is where the small bore and air pressure lessons take place. We do the laser shooting at our cross-country center at the trail entrance.
