They are considered as the six greatests of the Alps: the north faces of Grosser Zinne, Piz Badile, Matterhorn, Eiger, Petit Dru and Grandes Jorasses. Almost 70 years ago, the French mountain guide Gaston Rébuffat already wrote about the shady escapes in his classic "Stars and Storms": "A dream fulfilled gives birth to a new dream, and now I wanted to conquer all the great north faces." Mastering them all is a lifetime goal for many mountaineers, the Grand Slam of alpinism. The Swiss Roger Schäli and the South Tyrolean Simon Gietl have climbed all six walls several times. But they, too, have a new dream: their goal is to climb the iconic walls nonstop and to cover the distances between the summits under their own power. When they set out on a cool autumn morning, they have an almost impossible undertaking ahead of them: 1100 kilometers of distance, 30770 meters of ascent and 29470 meters of descent, which they plan to accomplish on road bikes, on foot, on ropes and by paraglider. This is also a special mountain trip for the experienced exceptionalists. Cause they know all that the Great North Walls should only be approached with caution and humility.

Climbed Cassin on Piz Badile the same day, they passed us on the first pitch and where down in the valley when we topped out 😂
When was this?
2021 21-22 september 😊
Don’t effin lie no you did not ahahaha
Beautifully narrated
What a crazy attempt, amazing cinematography, and also the recognition for the support crew at the end. I don't think enough people recognise and put faces to the names of the support crew, and that was a really nice gesture. Also the gratitude for achieving it was palpable. When we're out in the mountains, you're at the mercy and grace of Mother Nature, it's not just about your ego and climbing it. She decides if you get to experience it, or snuff your life with your dreams.
Das war eine echte Motivation - ich schleife morgen gerade meine Eisgeräte und gehe noch mehr als geplant in die Berge - thank you
Awesome film. The Alps, just wow!
Wondeful piece of film!
der Simon is ein wahnsinns Alpinist und auch a super Schauspieler!
Wow..... Such a great film!
What a solid made film portrait of a dream. Enjoyed so see the guys and their team succed. But the beautifully filmed landscapes even more.
Habd a fei schee gmacht. Häd i ned denkt.
This is a crazy achievement, top work from the athletes and support crew
Really enjoyed that. Amazing effort from all involved
Toller Film. Sowas sollte auf einer großen Leinwand laufen!
What an incredible accomplishment to conquer all six of these legendary north faces! The dedication, skill, and perseverance are truly inspiring! ✨
Amazing achievement, very well shot and documented. It inspires to keep dreaming and keep pushing in the mountains.
Ganz großes Kino!!!
Das sollte eine 2-Stunden-Doku sein!
Und ich möchte endlich das Buch "Sterne und Stürme" kaufen können!! ^^
erinnert an die jungen messner brüder. die sind auch mit dem fahrrad zum bergsteigen gefahren. nur ohne 5 begleitfahrzeuge.
Great film and huge achievement! 🔥🙏🏼
Jungs ich bin total geflachst!!! jede tour für sich ist der Wahnsinn aber die Kombination per Bike... unfassbar. Gratuliere euch von Herzen zu dem erfolg und den Erlebnissen
Insane! Geht scho 🤙
Good god these lines look sick. What eiger route? Surely not 1938 classic. So steep..scary. amazing film
Krass! yesterday I was taught that word, and now I truly understand what it means. inspired!
is it really "under your own power" when you have a support van following you around?
Schönes Imagevideo, aber von der eigentlichen Erlebnis kommt nichts rüber. Macht mehr den Eindruck eines Urlaubs-Videos, nur in diesem Fall von Profis produziert mit ganz viel Sponsoring. Auch die Menschliche Leistung geht neben dem Indie-Folk Vibe unter. Andererseits ist der Style mal eine willkommene Abweichung von der übertheatralisierte Darstellung vom Bergsteigen. Bin zwiegespalten… 😅
Yes…me too. An outstanding achievement, but it seems strangely lacking in adventure due to the extent of support and the underlying corporate feel. The goal reminds me a bit of Don Whillans famous motorcycle trip through Central Asia after climbing in the Himalayas, but Don truly had an unsupported adventure!
