SUCH24

SUCH (Swiss Ultracycling Challenge) is a unique self-supported ultra that invites riders to discover every corner of Switzerland through a route that is as strategic as it is demanding. Covering approximately 1,000 kilometres, the challenge takes participants across all 26 Swiss cantons, linking spectacular alpine passes, rolling countryside, pristine lakes, and historic towns into one unforgettable journey.

Unlike traditional bikepacking races, SUCH combines a fixed set of mandatory checkpoints with strategic route planning. Riders must visit every checkpoint while remaining entirely within Switzerland, choosing their own route between them. This creates a different challenge for every participant, where navigation and decision-making are just as important as endurance.

The event follows a strict self-supported philosophy. Riders are responsible for their own navigation, accommodation, food, and mechanical repairs, with no outside assistance permitted. Available in Solo, Pairs, and Relay categories, SUCH places a strong emphasis on fair play, community, and the spirit of adventure over pure competition.

From legendary Alpine climbs and emerald valleys to quiet rural roads and crystal-clear lakes, SUCH showcases the incredible diversity of Switzerland in a single ride. Combining strategic route planning with world-class scenery, it has become one of Europe’s most original and rewarding ultra-distance cycling challenges.
