BERGFREUNDINNEN

Bikepacking nach Paris
STORY

1300 kilometers and 10 000 vertical meters. Storms, crashesand breakdowns. Great views and painful lows. Surpassing themselves and growing together as friends. This is the story of three friends on a bikepacking tour to Paris. The three women and hosts of the successful podcast Bergfreundinnenhave nothing with them on their very personal Tour de France but three bikes, one tent and the help of their community. The three-part documentary series has been available in the ARD media library since the end of October. At the Shades of Winter Festival, the three mountain friends have something completely new in their luggage: previously unpublished footage of their energy-sapping final spurt just before the big finish –the Arc de Triomphe in Paris.
