About

Feel the rush of a biathlete as you test your marksmanship skills at the Mt Van Hoevenberg Cross Country and Biathlon Center. In the summer months, obviously you can't ski the trails without snow, but you can get heart racing—the idea being to simulate the rush biathletes feel as they try to line up a target. Then you'll step up to the range in their Cross Country Stadium, take aim, and fire a .22 rifle or a paintball gun (12 & under) to test your marksmanship. Come out and see how you do; it's worth a shot!
