Grenoble Autumn Biathlon 2025

The Grenoble Autumn Biathlon took place on 11 October 2025 at the speed skating oval in Parc Paul Mistral, Grenoble.

Following the French Ski Federation’s Coupe du Dauphiné competition held in the morning, the afternoon featured a Biathlon Running Laser race open to the general public. The event welcomed participants born in 2017 or earlier, offering them the opportunity to compete on the same course as the morning’s athletes.

The format consisted of a mass start, with competitors completing three laps of 1.2 km and two prone shooting stages on a 30-lane range. Races were organised by age category based on registrations, with podium ceremonies held at the conclusion of the event.

Participants benefited from shooting practice sessions and a structured warm-up, supervised by coaches from the Nordic section of GUC Grenoble Ski. Competitors were divided into waves of 30 according to their year of birth.

The event was supported by the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes (AURA) Ski League, and a refreshment area was available throughout the day.

The Grenoble Autumn Biathlon once again provided an accessible and engaging introduction to biathlon, bringing together participants of all ages in a friendly and sporting atmosphere.
