Alpine Challenge
See you for the fourth edition of an evening alpine hiking challenge to benefit pediatric research, starting in 2025. Dates and information to come.
A hike under the stars
The ALPINE Challenge is a 5-hour alpine touring challenge with all proceeds going to pediatric research. The first three editions raised $622,000 for research into child and adolescent mental health.
Ski touring enthusiasts are invited to an evening adventure on the mountain. Join us at Owl’s Head. Participants must make as many ascents as possible with their climbing skins—solo or in groups. Don’t miss this chance to climb the mountain with friends, or to ascend as part of a relay team.

We thank all our partners, sponsors, participants, and volunteers, and we look forward to seeing you again next year!
The goal is to raise funds, so whoever raises the most money will take home the Foundation’s Alpine Cup.
Each Alpine Challenge has a musical element to liven up the mountain event. Meet us at the foot of the mountain and join us in the chalet to get the most out of your Alpine Challenge.
