Special moments deserve more than a photo

You were at the summit. It was quiet, clear – simply free. Now the moment is only on your phone – somewhere between shopping lists, chats, and notes.

You think about it often. But the more time passes, the more the feeling fades. That’s exactly what we wanted to change.

"Some memories deserve more than a photo – they deserve a place to tell their story."

alpen-werk transforms geographic data into tangible models: as a 3D-printed mountain relief on solid oak wood – with your personal summit, your tour, your story.

From engineer to mountain relief maker

As a mechanical engineer, I always wanted to create something with my create with hands. Something that lasts. My wife just said: "But please nothing pointless."

The mountains have always been part of my life. They give me peace, Clear view, a clear head. So why not simply bring the mountain bring the outdoors inside?

The first prototype was on our shelf and we knew immediately: This is more than decoration. This is memory. A piece of home. A piece of freedom for your home.

Today, every model contains exactly that: the love of the mountains, the joy of craftsmanship and the desire to capture special moments forever.

Personally active: Trail running, ice climbing, high-altitude tours, hiking, mountaineering, ski touring, ski mountaineering – and yes, also ran a marathon.

We know what we do – and live it.

“Not just a mountain. Your mountain."
