Nostalgia Ski World Championships 

Back in time to the early days of skiing

From the museum onto the slopes. Every two years the people from Pinzgau and other nostalgia fans from all over the world go down into their cellar to get those ancient, traditional skis out for a race of a different kind. Numerous crazy guys and girls from different nations are once again expected in a sporting outfit from their grandparents – this means in leather boots and with more than 80 years old wooden skis.

Tradition is for everybody

In two competitions, male and female participants are separated depending on the category and evaluated according to a points system. In the end there will be six world champions. This event is of course also about the winning the race, but mainly about the tradition and the happy and cheering faces. Everyone is welcome - no matter if you join as a spectator or a participant. One thing is for sure: this highlight should not to be missed!

The Nostalgia Ski World Championship is organized by the association "Leogang Anno 1900". It was founded in 2003, and a year later the first nostalgia ski world championship was held in Leogang. From then on it has been carried out every two years at the Schanteilift in the village center. The upcoming edition is already the eighth! The Nostalgia Ski World Championship is enjoying increasing numbers of competitors, so the organizers were able to welcome more than 250 enthusiastic racers from 6 nations at the last World Champs.
