The Alpenbrevet Extended brings the legendary Alpenbrevet to a new, digital format. Between May and October, cycling fans can ride the seven iconic Alpine passes around Andermatt flexibly and individually - whenever they want, as often as they want.
The routes ridden are automatically recorded via Strava or Garmin and evaluated in a digital ranking list. A badge is awarded for each pass completed - and your personal status increases with each additional one. This turns the experience into a game: collect, compare, improve.
The Alpenbrevet Extended is aimed at anyone who wants to experience the Alpenbrevet feeling - whether in preparation for the big event or simply to enjoy the passes at their own pace.
Real Alps, real vertical meters - but digitally connected.
Alpenbrevet Extended - your summer in the Alps.
Who is the format intended for?
- For all those who want to experience the Alpenbrevet feeling.
- For participants who are already registered in order to prepare themselves optimally and "tick off" each pass individually.

How does it work?
- Register online and connect your account with Strava or Garmin.
