When are tracks prepared?
In stable weather without snowfall, our trails are freshly prepared in the late afternoon/evening for the next day.
If it has snowed overnight, the situation looks quite different: Our trail team sets out around 6 a.m. to prepare all trails as quickly as possible! The snow groomers start at the Chiemgau Arena. One goes toward the 3-Lakes area, the other two groomers head toward the village. The Madshus trail is prepared first, followed by the practice meadow at Vita Alpina. Then it goes toward the Grashof trail and finally the Frog Lake trail and the Brander trail. That's the plan – but sometimes the sequence must be adjusted to conditions or improvised with heavy snowfall. In any case, our trail team always gives their all to make conditions as perfect as possible!
Author’s recommendation
Please reserve multimedia tours through the Chiemgau Arena in advance at www.chiemgau-arena.de.
A fascinating insight into the Chiemgau Arena, its history, and the protagonists is available for free on the "Info-Walk". Of course, a visit to the Cafe Biathlon is also worthwhile, where you might be lucky enough to meet a biathlete in person.
Stop by at the rustic Plenk cross-country ski hut - here you can rent cross-country skiing equipment alongside lovingly prepared snacks and homemade cake: www.sportplenk.com
Or enjoy alpine delicacies on the terrace of the Zirmbergalm: www.zirmbergalm.de
