everesting
is the most difficult climbing challenge in the world
a simple formula…
The concept of Everesting is fiendishly simple: Pick any hill, anywhere in the world and repeatedly ride, run, or ski up and down it in one activity with no sleep until you reach your elevation.
Everesting is simple in concept, yet brutally hard.

Everesting types
Whether on a bike, on foot, on skis, or indoors, Everesting is a true testament of endurance and determination.
Ride (Cycling): This is the most common way to attempt Everesting. Cyclists find a hill or mountain and repeatedly ride up and down until they accumulate their chosen elevation gain. The challenge is grueling, often taking participants upwards of 12-24 hours to complete, depending on the gradient and their fitness level.
Run/Hike: This involves running or hiking up a designated hill or mountain repeatedly until the required elevation is achieved. Run/Hike Everestings have the option of shuttled or non-shuttled descents.
Ski: In the skiing version of Everesting, participants ascend a slope repeatedly using touring skis (ski mountaineering), splitboards, or snowshoes. After each climb, they descend on skis and repeat until they have completed the vertical challenge. This version adds the complexity of snow conditions and technical equipment to the test of endurance.
Stairs: Stairs Everesting offers an indoor or urban alternative. Climbers find a tall building or a set of stairs and repeat the ascent until they reach the total elevation gain. While it might seem more controlled, the repetition and impact on the legs make stair Everesting equally challenging.
