The best cross-country skiing events in Tyrol

In Tirol, Cross Country Skiing races and events are held regularly, combining a sporting focus with a genuine folk festival atmosphere. What makes them special is the blend of competition, atmosphere and incentive – professionals and amateur athletes often line up together at the start.
 

Many events are aimed not only at ambitious athletes, but also at anyone who simply wants to take part in a relaxed way. Thanks to the atmosphere and the overall experience, many events are also an attractive trip for accompanying guests and curious onlookers.

Not usually: Many cross-country skiing events offer different races or distances to suit various ability levels. This means that participants can often choose between a competitive race and a more relaxed ‘leisure’ option.

Yes, it’s often particularly worthwhile: many Cross Country Skiing events thrive on the atmosphere along the course, in the start/finish area and at the side events. This creates a great atmosphere that works even if you’re not taking part.

It’s a good idea to complete registration in good time, have a quick look at the route and distances, and make sure you have the right cross-country skiing kit for the conditions. It’s also worth allowing a bit of time for collecting your race number and soaking up the atmosphere on the day.
