Collenberg 3D Archery Course<\/h1>\n


\nThe Collenberg archery course was opened in 2007 and has enjoyed great popularity with archers from the region, all over Germany and even from other European countries from the very beginning.<\/p>\n

It is operated by the archery department of KKSV Fechenbach e.V.<\/a>, the local shooting club in Collenberg, and is located on a site directly at the shooting clubhouse<\/strong> in Collenbergs district Fechenbach.<\/p>\n

The course terrain and the landscape<\/h2>\n

The course is laid out along 4,5 km long circuit<\/strong> in the beautiful nature along the Fechenbach and the two slopes of the Fechenbach valley. The course area covers an area of 25 hectares. The route leads you from the clubhouse starting at the stream along, then across the orchard meadows, past blackberry hedges and through small groves and finally over the wooded western slope of Fechenberg back to the clubhouse. The very varied terrain<\/strong> and the naturalness of the area<\/strong> make the tour on the Bogenparcours Collenberg a great experience for the whole family. <\/p>\n

The Facilities of the Course<\/h2>\n

At the 33 stations<\/strong>, the Collenberg archery course with its more than 120 3D animals<\/strong> offers numerous interesting and challenging shots. Shooting uphill, shooting downhill, shooting through small shooting windows, shooting at moving targets or from high places are just some of the special features that await you in Collenberg. During planning and implementation of each station, the operators attach great importance to the fact that there are natural and realistic 3D animal groups of at least two to three animals and not just one individual 3D animal. <\/p>\n

Furthermore, the Collenberg archers frequently modify the course<\/strong>, ensuring there is always something new to look forward to. It is precisely this variety\u2014combined with the richly appointed stations featuring groups of 3D animal targets\u2014that makes this 3D course so special and so popular among many archers. <\/p>\n

Both beginners, advanced and “professionals” get their money’s worth on the course. Each station is equipped not only with three different launching sticks (red for visors, blue for instinctive shooters, white for children), but in addition to some tricky shots always has a very “feasible” shot for everyone. Because most of the targets are very arrow-friendly, finding or breaking arrows is usually very limited, even for beginners. <\/p>\n

In addition to the 33 regular stations, there is a 24-target circuit designed in accordance with WA-3D requirements. For these shooting stakes, the specific animal targets and distance ranges have been selected to comply with the sports regulations of the DSB (German Shooting Federation). These 24 stations are integrated into the standard course layout. The stake marked “WA” within this circuit serves as the designated shooting position for adult archers using non-sighted bows, as per these regulations. This WA-style circuit<\/strong> is ideally suited for preparation for official DSB\/WA championships. <\/p>\n

Your equipment<\/h2>\n

If you want to visit and shoot at the Collenberg 3D Archery Course, you need to have your own archery equipment or at least bring one with you, as there is no bow rental on site. However, bow rental<\/a> is offered at a local archery shop<\/a>. In addition, there are also some providers of archery courses<\/a> where you can learn archery on the Collenberg course. <\/p>\n

On the course all kinds of bows are allowed, that means in addition to traditional bows and technical recurve bows also compound bows. There is no general draft limit, but compound bows are only allowed up to a 60 lb<\/strong> draw weight. There is no limit to the arrow speed. <\/p>\n

To ensure that the archery course remains “safe” to walk in all weather conditions and all seasons, critical areas or paths along slopes have been fitted with steps or wooden beams. Sturdy footwear, such as hiking boots, is strongly recommended. <\/p>\n

In addition, it is recommended – especially in the summer months – to always take something to drink with you. There is no catering option on site at the Sch\u00fctzenhaus or only if club members happen to be present. <\/p>\n

Registration for course use<\/h2>\n

Registration and payment on site is carried out by each shooter independently and on a basis of trust at the existing registration terminal or via smartphone. The registration terminal or QR code for digital registration via smartphone is located directly at the Sch\u00fctzenhaus next to the entrance door and is self-explanatory. The operators trust in the registration for the honesty of each visitor. However, regular controls are also carried out to ensure that trust is not abused. The registration process is as follows: Each guest must be registered via the digital registration form. Up to five people can be registered at the same time per registration. The course fee can then either be put in cash into an existing envelope, which can then be placed in the letter slot next to the registration, or it can also be paid by bank transfer. Now you can start shooting. <\/p>\n

\u200bWhat else to expect?<\/h2>\n

irst of all, you can warm-up at the existing and generously sized shooting range<\/strong> at the clubhouse after your arrival and before your walk on the course. There are several shooting targets at distances of 10-50 meters and numerous 3D targets available for you.
\nThen it goes into the course. The start is directly at the clubhouse along the stream. Station 1 is located about 100 meters behind the clubhouse. The circular route through the archery course is marked with red arrows and on the back of the terms of use you will find a map for a rough orientation. <\/p>\n

It takes two to five hours<\/strong> to complete a lap on the archery course. It all depends on how fast you walk, how many people you’re on the road and how fast you shoot. A good level of fitness is an advantage, as you have to overcome a height difference of around 70-80m twice over several stations over the course of the circular route. <\/p>\n

To pause and linger in nature, the numerous seats available on the course invite. At four points on the archery course (at target 7, at target 13, after target 16, and at target 24) there is even a covered seating area with a table and benches integrated, so that you can eat the snack you brought with you there or shelter from the onset of a downpour can bring security. You can also go back to station 16 on the land consolidation route back to the clubhouse and eat there or take a break. <\/p>\n

Prices and Opening Hours<\/h2>\n

The course fee is a daily fee, what means that you are allowed to do as many rounds on the course as you want<\/strong> during the day. The fee always includes the use of the shooting range, where you can then improve your shooting technique after the course or in the break or you can train shooting on different distances.<\/p>\n

Adults (from 18 years) pay 15 EUR per day, Adults Compound (from 18 years) pay 20 EUR per day, Children & Teenagers (12 to 17 years) pay 5 EUR and children under 12 years accompanied by a paying adult are free of charge.<\/p>\n

The opening hours of the 3D course are based on the sunrise and sunset and must be strictly adhered to for safety reasons. The exact opening times can be found in the table below. Throughout the year the course can be used between 9:00 and 16:00 o’clock, in the summer accordingly longer. <\/p>\n
