Bakala is a famous test and research centre in Belgium. The influence of altitude can be tested on athletes as well. The low-oxygen environment contains 6 guestrooms and enough livingspace to make sure athletes can create a comfortable stay at altitude.
Athletes can stay here for several weeks, allowing the simulated height to improve their red blood cell production. This saves them a trip to the mountains.
Most of the athletes that train and test themselves at Bakala are endurance athletes, for instance, the Belgian Omega-Pharma/ Quickstep Cycle Team, or the Uplace Pro Triathlon Team.
