Ski mountaineering — also known as “Skimo” — is making its Olympic debut at the 2026 Winter Games in Milan-Cortina. Unlike traditional alpine or freestyle skiing, this high-endurance sport combines climbing uphill with skins on skis, then racing downhill at high speed. Events include sprint races and a mixed-gender relay, showcasing extreme endurance, technical transitions, and daring descents.
Long popular in European mountain communities, Skimo is now stepping onto the world’s biggest stage. Here’s everything you need to know about this new addition to the Winter Olympics.
