Stadium and Timing Building

The original Timing Building was moved in 2003 when the Stadium Production room was built. A two-story addition was added during fall 2007 in anticipation of the upcoming World cup. This building is situated in front of the competition finish area.

The shooting range is located in the stadium with 30 lanes with mechanical targets with night lighting on 10 targets. The site was awarded the International Biathlon Union Class B license in November 2002.
