About Tobi
Probably something in between adventurer, endurance athlete storyteller and mountain lover :). A swiss guy who went to university to somehow turn riding bikes for way too long and climbing mountains that look slightly uncomfortable into a profession. I love moving through landscapes under my own power.

How did he get into mountain sports?
Growing up in Switzerland makes it hard not to. I started skiing and hiking as a kid. At some point I thought: “What if I just connect countries and mountains by bike?” That idea never really stopped.

What have been some of his personal milestones or highlights?

• Swiss champion in mountain running as a kid.
• Cycling 36,000 km through 44 European countries and climbing their highest peaks at 18.
• Climbing the highest Gipel in all 26 swiss cantons and finding the best Gipfeli (=Croissant) along the way.
• Next: same thing on a new continent: All 35 countries by bike, climbing the highest mountain in each one. But actually the best moments are usually not the summits. It’s the random sunrise, the suffering that turns into laughter, or the feeling of earning your way somewhere.

What motivates him in the mountains?
Simplicity. And it’s always better to be out there than to sit around at university.

In which regions is he mainly active?
Everywhere a bit :) But mainly in the most beautiful one.
