Skisport-Halle Oberhof, Indoor skiing facility in Oberhof, Germany.
Skisport-Halle Oberhof is an indoor sports facility with an oval cross-country ski track measuring roughly 1754 meters, divided into three sections with varying elevation changes. The complex provides training spaces for Nordic skiing and biathlon disciplines year-round with carefully regulated indoor conditions.
The facility opened in 2009 as Germany's first indoor cross-country skiing track following roughly 14 months of construction. This opening marked a turning point for winter sports infrastructure development in the country.
The facility serves as a central training ground for national teams in Nordic disciplines, promoting winter sports development throughout the calendar year.
The interior temperature is kept at roughly minus 4 degrees Celsius with snow machines maintaining consistent conditions. Visitors should dress warmly and be prepared for the varying slopes along the track.
Inside the same building sits a specialized shooting range with stations for small bore and air rifles, allowing biathlon training under one roof. This integrated setup was a breakthrough in German sports facilities when it opened.
