The competition, organized by the International Ski Mountaineering Federation (ISMF), was originally planned in Claut, Italy, for the year 2011, which was held at last as the 2011 World Championship of Ski Mountaineering. Due to this circumstance, the ninth edition of the European championships was the first held in an even-numbered year. It was the first edition including a sprint race.
