Ski mountaineering included in 2030 French Alps Winter Olympics

Ski mountaineering, also known as skimo, will be part of the Winter Olympic program at the 2030 Games in the French Alps. The inclusion was approved by IOC members, marking the sport's continuation following its debut at the Milan Cortina Games. The IOC aims to expand the event program from three events in 2026 to five in 2030, introducing longer individual races for both men and women. The French Alps organizers plan to host skimo in the Briançonnais region, which will also feature freestyle skiing and snowboarding. The IOC will finalize the entire event program in the coming weeks.
