In this episode of Schlafsackgeflüster—the deuter podcast for great mountain stories—we meet a true mountain man: Jakob Herrmann.

The former professional ski mountaineer, 24-hour record holder, and endurance athlete speaks openly about his journey from competitive sports to his current life as a mountain hut owner in Werfenweng. The conversation covers mental strength, pushing boundaries, injuries, nutrition, motivation—and the conscious decision to slow down.

An honest conversation about success and doubt, about extreme sports and slowing down.
