Expedition Patrouille des Glaciers (2028)

Date: Spring 2028‍

Number of participants: 6 - 18

‍Goal:  prepare yourself for the most legendary ski touring race in the world.

The Patrouille des Glaciers is not a race you just show up for. You start in the middle of the night and traverse challenging high-alpine terrain. From the first kilometer to the finish line, your fitness, mountain experience, technique, and mental resilience will be put to the test. To participate, you need extensive ski touring experience and a very high level of fitness. This is a serious mountain race, not an introduction to the sport.

BEAT helps you arrive at the start line well-prepared. Whether you already have a complete team of three or are still looking for a teammate, we will create a personalized training program that matches your level, advise you on equipment, and help you determine a smart strategy for race day.

Your preparation culminates in a three-day training weekend around Arolla, Switzerland. Here, we put the skills from your training into practice in the mountains and rehearse the techniques you will need during the race. Together with a group of other athletes working toward the same goal, you will focus on getting ready for the start.

Are you already planning to register? Join us anyway. BEAT helps you assemble your team, connects you with an experienced guide, and streamlines the registration process. This ensures that on race day, you are not just registered, but also fully prepared to start.

This is a unique opportunity to test yourself, push your limits, and achieve a legendary performance with your team. We hope to see you in 2028!
