We are developing the first end-to-end digital platform   for mountaineering and outdoor travel 

ABOUT

 WHAT IS BERGLIN? 

Berglin is an ongoing project aimed at creating the first end-to-end digital platform designed to inspire and connect outdoor enthusiasts, find certified outdoor guides and book experiences with local professionals. 

The interaction happens via a mobile app. Through safe user registration and the creation of a personal profile, users can access different communities defined according to the disciplines of interest. The first community to be launched will be the rock climbing one, followed by the skiing community.

Each community has a dedicated "find a partner" and "find a professional" functionality through which specific filters are applied to profiles in the vicinity or at specific locations. Moreover, community members can view and register for experiences organized by professionals, alpine institutions or other users.

 OUR MISSION AND VISION 

What do we aim at?

Our aim is to create a hub to empower communities of outdoor enthusiasts and inspire them to adventure and exploration of new territories and their local realities.

​

How do we do it?

We bring innovation to the various niches of outdoor activities by providing a digital solution enabling new connections in the real world among adventure-driven people.

Berglin helps assess and find new outdoor companions. Through dedicated rooms for discussions, quality content by professionals and creators, and integrations with environmental bulletins and smart devices for performance and route analytics, we create the go-to space for organizing outdoor activities.

THE BERGLIN STORY

Development of the Berglin concept, a digital platform for mountaineering and outdoor

​

In the frame of the 5-month start-up incubation programme, we conceived and expanded the idea of creating a digital space where mountaineers and outdoor enthusiasts can connect with each other, find alpine professionals or organizations, and engage for the organization and realization of outdoor experiences.

Release of the prototype of the Berglin App

​

We developed the first version of the Berglin mobile app focused on enabling mountaineering enthusiasts to connect with each other, find local guides and pre-organized experiences.

Launch of Berglin experiences

​

Inspired by the idea of bringing the Berglin community together, we have organised several series of multi-day climbing experiences. 
In partnership with Mapo Tapo and XMountain, we have launched a series of week-long trips combining sailing and climbing in Sardinia, Italy. With PennaValley we have organised climbing workshops in the Val Paennavarie, one of Italy's favourite climbing areas.

 Two sisters with a passion for the mountains and committed to   digitising elements of outdoor travel and mountaineering experiences 

The idea of Berglin was born in spring 2021 with the aim of facilitating the connection between individuals driven by the spirit of adventure and creating opportunities for personal growth in the exploration of high altitude natural havens and self-challenge.

​

Both with a 7-year racing career in alpine skiing, when days in the mountains almost alternated with days in the city, we rediscovered the mountains a few years ago as a place to connect with our inner selves and overcome personal boundaries. With Berglin, we want to create a community where to support and empower each other and where knowledge of the territory is conveyed by mountain guides and other outdoor professionals.
