Description
Crossing Switzerland – Conquer the Alps, Cross a Nation
Are you ready for one of Europe’s most breathtaking and challenging multi-stage trail races?
Crossing Switzerland is a 400-kilometer ultra-distance journey that takes you from the quiet elegance of Vaduz, Liechtenstein to the iconic lakeside city of Montreux, Switzerland. Along the way, you'll traverse the legendary Via Alpina, experience the raw beauty of the Swiss Alps, and pass through seven cantons, 14 alpine passes, and over 20 aid stations — all under the towering peaks and open skies.
🏔 An Adventure Through Switzerland’s Most Iconic Landscapes
- Stand beneath the North Face of the Eiger
- Run through the waterfalls of Lauterbrunnen
- Recharge beside the turquoise waters of Lake Oeschinen (UNESCO)
Cross charming alpine towns like Gstaad, Engelberg, and Château-d'Oex
This is not just a race — it’s an odyssey. Whether you take on the challenge solo or as part of a DUO or EKKIDEN team (3–5 runners), you’ll be immersed in a physical and emotional journey across one of the world’s most stunning natural arenas.
