The gear must remain light and self-sufficient, with batteries protected from the cold. It’s essential to anticipate the runners’ passage, understand their rhythm, and position yourself in the right place at the right time.
Swiss peaks trail
Since the creation of the event in 2017, LINKA has been the official partner of SWISSPEAKS, an extraordinary race that crosses the Valais over more than 330 kilometers.
Vertiginous landscapes, an authentic atmosphere, and precise organization: each year, the event pushes boundaries, both for the runners and for our creativity.

Edition 2022“It is in the mountains that I exist… that I feel alive.”
Photographing an ultra-trail requires far more than simply following the race. In the high mountains, every image is earned through difficult access, changing weather, altitude, and long hikes at dawn or during the night.
Beyond logistics, the challenge is human: capturing fatigue, solitude, and determination. In the mountains, the photographer also shares the effort.
LINKA co-founders“On a race like SWISSPEAKS, we are not just behind the lens. We walk, we climb, we feel the cold and the fatigue. It’s this closeness to the effort that allows us to capture authentic images, as close as possible to the human experience.”
A unique adventure in the heart of the Swiss Alps, between lake and peaks
