About Mathias and the World Record

Welcome to a truly unique day, where Mathias Ekornås will climb Mount Vinson—not in Antarctica, but on the Mammut Wall here at SNØ. He will be climbing the equivalent height in our ice climbing wall! And not only that—he is also aiming to break the world record for vertical ice climbing within 24 hours.

We invite you to join this journey, where spectators can try ice climbing themselves and cheer Mathias on!

Program for the day

Climbing all day Saturday, March 22nd
Mathias will begin climbing in the early hours of Saturday, aiming to surpass the unofficial record for the most vertical meters climbed on ice in one day, which currently stands at 7,760 meters.
