THE STORY
First held in January 1928, the inaugural Inferno Race took place when 19 members of Kandahar Ski Club climbed the Schilthorn (2,970m) above Mürren, Switzerland to race down the 2,100 meters to Lauterbrunnen, 14 kilometres away. A journey of almost 10 miles (15 km) and nearly 5 times the length of contemporary downhill Olympic courses, the Inferno was an alpine event whose novelty and legitimate physical and mental obstacles created powerful appeal to the growing racing class cut from the cloth of the Kandahar’s expansive blanket of accelerating British influence.
