Aku celebrates athletes’ connection to the mountains

Outdoor footwear brand Aku is the main sponsor of the 2025 PreAlpiTour Hike & Fly Race.

The event, which involves hiking and paragliding, takes place from July 23-26, starting and finishing in the province of Belluno in northern Italy.

Athletes will cover long, high-altitude routes in the southern Dolomites, alternating ascents on foot with paragliding. As well as their physical endurance, the race will put to the test participants’ ability to read the terrain, weather conditions and the natural environment.

Aku said it was happy to support a sustainable sport that requires “authentic connection with the mountains”.
