Biathlon at the 2026 Winter Olympics: A Visual Guide

Without doubt, biathlon will be one of the most followed disciplines of the Milan-Cortina Olympic Games. Contested from February 8 to 21 at the very famous Antholz-Anterselva site, not far from Austria, at an altitude of 1,600 m, the events promise to be spectacular. In the Südtirol Arena, renovated for the occasion, the very ambitious French team, led by Lou Jeanmonnot, Julia Simon, Justine Braisaz, Éric Perrot and Quentin Fillon Maillet, will seek to beat its record for medals in an edition established during the Beijing 2022 Games with 7 charms (3 gold, 4 silver). As always, the Norwegians will be their most serious rivals while the Italians, at home, also look formidable.
