A friendly XC competition

touch and go XC Challenge
"Urmiberg / Froni Edition"

01.04.2026. - 30.09.2026.

Total prize money: CHF 1000

Our local mountains, the Urmiberg and Fronalpstock, are not exactly known as a typical starting point for cross-country flights – and certainly not an easy choice. This is exactly what makes the challenge so exciting: we want to see what is possible!

The challenge

The rules are simple: whoever makes the flight with the highest score wins – according to the official criteria of the SwissCross Country Cup. Whether you want to explore the landscape, beat your personal best or simply enjoy the feeling of flying freely – every flight counts.

In addition to fame and honor, great prizes await the winners. So grab your equipment and show us how far you can fly!
