Wondering if you’re fit enough to be ready for Everesting in June? Our answer: Yes! You can do it! If you already exercise regularly and are active, you can even achieve an Everesting with just a few weeks’ preparation. The biggest challenge is in the head and not so much in the legs. Learn more HEREwhat basic fitness is an advantage and how we prepared for our own Everesting.

Quite simply, because we want to give you the best possible experience. We do not compromise on quality and safety and that has its price.

The logistics of ALPIN8 sound trivial at first, but there is more to it than that. This includes, for example, the mountain railroad, which is available to us for 34 hours at a time, catering stations with the best products from the region, and a large team that supports you for the entire duration of the event and is on hand to help with any difficulties. But even supposed little things like insurances and high-quality details (like your very own professional photo package) make our event unique.

ALPIN8 lives from a concept that is coherent from front to back and where many small elements make up the big picture. In order to guarantee this, the Everesting is limited to just 300 participants. Of course, the ticket would be cheaper if we had 1000 participants, but then ALPIN8 would be a mass event.

We are all about a special atmosphere for a very special experience. The limitation to only 300 participants and the associated price enables us to offer the quality that gives you the best possible experience.

We strongly recommend that you take out insurance that will refund your registration fee if you are unable to take part in the event due to illness or injury. 
We have spoken to various providers and recommend ticket insurance or travel cancellation insurance from ERGO. Travel cancellation insurance has the additional advantage that you can even insure the costs of travel and accommodation.  
The insurance applies to all residents of the EU. 
If you have any questions about insurance, you can contact Mike Zander at ERGO at any time: mike.zander@ergo.de 

The ultimate goal at ALPIN8 may be the summit of Mount Everest, but no matter how far you get, it will always be a great accomplishment! We are sure: No matter how many meters of altitude you manage, it will definitely be more than you have ever managed before in one day. And that’s what it’s all about: Going beyond your supposed limits and unleashing your potential. You can do much more than you think!

The Brand mountain rescue team will be on site with 2 teams and will be there if you need help.

If you can’t continue on the mountain, you can call us and we will send you help. Therefore, it is important that your phone always has enough battery.

You are in the mountains, but always relatively close to civilization. The course itself is only about 3km long and you will always have other participants or people from the event team near you who can support you in case of emergency.

Sure, bring everyone who wants to support you! Seeing your family or friends along the way can bring out hidden reserves of strength!

The area around Brand is beautiful and offers many opportunities to stay a few days longer and make a vacation out of participating in ALPIN8 Everesting. Inform yourself HEREto find out how you can best spend the days surrounding the event with your friends or family.

Sure! If you know that you want specific snacks or gels, then be sure to bring them yourself.

We provide snacks such as fresh fruit, muesli, bars, sweet and savory sandwiches, nuts and dried fruit, as well as drinks. We also provide you with a hot meal once a day.

If you need anything else, be sure to pack it in your bag for the bag depot.

Quite simply: because in 2024 no one took advantage of the full 36 hours and no one was on the route for the last one and a half to two hours. We firmly believe that 34 hours is also enough to cover 8848 meters of altitude. By changing to 34 hours, we can move the joint final event forward a little, which opens up further possibilities for the location of the final event. More on this in due course 🙂

Yes, we will send you a packing list in time before the event. Basically you don’t need any special equipment for ALPIN8 Everesting – comfortable shoes and clothes are the most important. Nevertheless, we will send you a packing list with other important things such as headlamp or hiking poles – so you are well prepared and have everything you need with you.

In Brand there are many Hotels, guesthouses and apartments – including great spa areas for regeneration. Just book yourself (and your family) the overnight stays around the event there. If you are traveling with your camper, there is a campground about 7km from the event location. Camping site.

(The overnight stay is not included in the ticket).

The event location in Brand (Vorarlberg, Austria) can be reached by car as well as by public transport.

If you come with your own car, the easiest way to get there is via the A14 to Bludenz. From there it goes up to the Brandnertal. At the very end of the valley lies Brand and our event location at the Palüdbahn.

You want to travel by public transport? This is also quite simple. Take a train to Bludenz. From there you can take the 580 bus to “Brand, Palüdbahn” about every two hours. The bus ride takes 29 minutes.
