Binz hosts duathlon and biathlon events on Rügen

On September 19, the Baltic X Cross Duathlon and the Binzer Bucht Biathlon Open will take place in Binz on the island of Rügen. The event brings winter sports elements to the Baltic Sea coast using ski rollers and laser rifles instead of snow.

The Baltic X Cross Duathlon will run from 8:00 to 15:00, featuring running and mountain biking competitions across two different distances. Participants can choose between a short course or a longer route that includes mountain biking through the DBU nature reserve in Prora.

Following the duathlon, the Binzer Bucht Biathlon Open will begin at 15:30, allowing locals and visitors to participate in laser biathlon races and relays. The day will conclude with a musical event on the promenade featuring DJ Maik Juch.
