We are situated at an altitude of 800 meters, which guarantees us a nice cold weather at the end of February. The starting signal will be given on 25.02.2023.
We also offer our participants a wonderful wellness area with 4 different saunas for warming up and we provide a bathing tub directly at the competition lake.
