Schießanlage Hochbrück, Olympic shooting range in Garching bei München, Germany
Schießanlage Hochbrück is a shooting sports facility in Garching bei München that serves competitive athletes and recreational shooters. The complex includes specialized ranges for rifle, pistol, and shotgun disciplines with both indoor and outdoor training areas.
Built specifically for the 1972 Summer Olympics on a former military site, the facility originally hosted shooting and modern pentathlon events. After the games, it evolved into a major training center for shooters and later came under the management of the Bavarian Shooting Sports Federation.
The facility serves as a gathering place for shooting enthusiasts from across Bavaria who come to train and compete. It remains deeply connected to local sports traditions and the region's long history with marksmanship.
The facility offers both indoor halls and outdoor ranges, enabling year-round training regardless of weather conditions. Visitors should bring appropriate gear and check in advance which areas match their shooting discipline.
The facility includes specialized stations for trap and skeet shooting, disciplines that are less commonly trained compared to rifle and pistol events. This variety makes it a rare place where competitors can practice all shooting disciplines in one location.
