Lauberhorn Run

welcome

to the crazy Lauberhorn Run Event on 29 March 2026, with start at 10.30 h

get inspired!


Conquer the 1028-metre ascent and 4.48 kilometres distance of the Lauberhorn Ski World Cup Downhill course on snow. The finish line of the International Lauberhorn Downhill in Innerwengen marks the start line of the run. From there, the only way is UP: until you reach the start hut of the legendary downhill ski race.  It doesn't matter whether you wear hobnailed boots or running shoes, use poles or skis: the only condition is that you get up there entirely under your own steam.
Join us for this challenge!
