My

Ascents

From challenging Alpine summits to adventurous mountain expeditions, every ascent has its own story. Discover the routes, the challenges and the unforgettable moments behind my mountaineering adventures.

Cordillera Blanca, Peru

The story of several ascents in the Peruvian Andes. Three magnificent 5,000-meter peaks high in the Cordillera Blanca.

Mont Pelvoux

The final climb in preparation for our expedition to the Peruvian Andes.

Ben Nevis

Climb of the highest mountain in Scotland and the entire United Kingdom. An enjoyable ascent via the CMD Arête.

Hoher Angelus - Vertainspitze

A wonderful solo ascent of two peaks over 3,500 meters in the Ortler massif. Solitude, enjoyment, and speed.

Alphubel

Heading up to an altitude of 4,206 meters during a snowstorm and a complete whiteout. Mobile phones with GPS certainly come in handy then.

Zugspitze

Heading to Germany’s highest mountain with one of my best friends. And doing so in winter conditions.

Mont Vélan

Sometimes plans change due to weather conditions. But Plan B turned out to be an exceptionally good plan.

Mont Blanc

The highest peak in the Alps, the start of a friendship, and climbing for a good cause.

Bishorn

The Bishorn is known as a relatively easy climb offering a magnificent panorama from the summit. And both are true.

Zinalrothorn

A mountain known as one of the finest climbs in the Valais Alps. And other climbers knew that too on this day.

Obergabelhorn

Great climbing, despite a bad night’s sleep. Motivation makes the fatigue disappear.

The traverse of two magnificent peaks above the Saas Valley. A long but wonderful day.

Allalinhorn and Aletschhorn

Solo climbing on the north face of the Allalinhorn and a fine adventure on the remote Aletschhorn.

Dufourspitze

My first 4,000-meter peak and a harsh lesson in what altitude does to you.
