Mark Oberlechner: About Me

#ATHLETESTORY

The forecast for the next few hours is rain. A lot of rain. But we really want to get away and go back to the mountains. What should we do? Head up anyway or sit this one out?

A Trekking Adventure: The Corsican journey

#SALEWAFACES

Of course, there are thousands of places where you can experience the wild beauty of nature without going very far from home. Between France and Italy, in the middle of the Mediterranean, there is an island that perfectly embodies this wild splendour: Corsica.

A SPEED HIKING ADVENTURE:
IT’S NOT A GAME

#SALEWAFACES

ANTIFRAGILITY

#SALEWAFACES

Sometimes life calls us to face challenges which we would never have wanted to deal with. You can run away, or else you can tackle your fears. That is how tragedies become legends.

THERE IS NOBODY

#SALEWAFACES

There are moments in which you have to dig deep within yourself. This can only happen when you climb up a mountain, on your own.
