Cancellation of the 82nd Inferno Downhill overshadows strong results of the Bernese Oberland racers
This year's International Inferno Race in Mürren was cancelled due to a fatal medical incident. The rankings of the previous riders will be counted. The winners' podiums for both women and men are firmly in the hands of the Bernese Oberland.
This year's Inferno Downhill race on 24 January 2026 was cancelled after just over half of the competitors had started. A 69-year-old rider collapsed shortly before the finish line and died at the scene despite immediate resuscitation efforts. As a result, the organising committee decided to cancel the race. At the same time, those responsible decided to evaluate the results up to the point at which the race was cancelled.

DVD Inferno Race - a film by Bernhard Spörri
What began in 1928 with a handful of British ski enthusiasts is today a major event with 1850 racers.
What does it take to race with the best? How has the race developed? how is the event organised today? What about safety? The film looks at the Inferno winners, current and former organisers and historians of the Kandahar ski club and gives an insight into the fascinating history of the Mürren Inferno race.
The DVD can be purchased for CHF 25.00 from the race office. Please note that the film is mainly in German with subtitles in German.
