Winter sports infrastructure development and preparation is underway in Poland. In Babica, near Wadowice, construction has commenced on a 27,000-square-meter indoor ski slope facility. This project, which received a building permit in June 2026, includes a year-round hall with specialized cooling systems and a larger tourism complex featuring a hotel and aquapark.

Simultaneously, in Zakopane, COS-OPO has begun installing ice tracks at the Wielka Krokiew and Średnia Krokiew complexes. These tracks are designed to facilitate hybrid training for ski jumping athletes by simulating winter conditions. The installation is scheduled to be completed in early October, ahead of the Polish Summer Championships set for October 16 and 17.
