About the Race

WHY RUN IT?

The Mountainman is an iconic Swiss alpine race, complete with enough steep switchbacks, charming villages, and high passes to last you a lifetime. Just when you think you can take anymore, the course veers uphill for a tough final ascent to the summit of Mount Pilatus, where relief and stunning views of the surrounding mountains await.

“Somewhere along the line we seem to have confused comfort with happiness.”

- Dean Karnazes

After the race, you can hang out and explore the mountains around Titlis, or head on to Interlaken (3.5 hours by train), where all sorts of adventures await. You can skydive from a helicopter, raft down icy rivers, and take a ride to Jungfraujoch, the highest train station in Europe.
