This adventure with Škoda began in Nax, Switzerland, where the hospitality team had prepared our unique home for the weekend: a rooftop tent on the brand-new Elroq RS. It may sound like simple camping, but in reality, it was more like glamping—offering all the comfort needed to fully focus on the experience. Perched at over 1,000 meters in the heart of Valais, the campsite came with breathtaking views over the Rhône Valley, making it feel as if we had stepped straight into an Alpine postcard.
The next morning kicked off with a mountain bike ride led by former pro-rider Nadine Rieder. It was the perfect way to wake up for such a special day. Nadine not only shared valuable insights but also managed to significantly improve my confidence and technique on a mountain bike in such a short time.
After this invigorating ride, it was time for the highlight of the trip: the Cross-Country Olympic World Championships in Crans-Montana. Already a rising star on the global MTB scene, Crans-Montana hosted the grand finale this year, and the atmosphere was nothing short of electric. The speed of the riders, the buzz of the crowd, and the dramatic mountain backdrop came together to create a truly unforgettable spectacle.
We returned to the campsite for one last shared dinner before everyone departed the following morning. My journey home was just as smooth as the weekend itself: traveling with the Škoda
Elroq meant I only needed a single charging stop before arriving back comfortably.
To sum it all up: the Find Your Adventure Program hosted by Škoda delivered on its promise, blending sport, nature, culture, and community into one seamless experience. From panoramic campfires in Nax to world-class racing in Crans-Montana, every moment was a reminder of why we chase adventure—to challenge ourselves, connect with others, and savor the beauty of the world around us
