Descent from a three thousand-metre peak on a unicycle

Cima Ombretta Orientale - Dolomites (South Tyrol)

Lutz Eichholz from Kaiserslautern is one of the best unicyclists in the world. The four-time world champion and world record holder takes his unicycle to the very limit of what is possible. He has been featured in TV shows around the globe. Lutz likes to practice his sport in alpine terrain, always looking for new obstacles and challenges. Now the 26-year old environmental engineering student conquered the Cima Ombretta Orientale, a three thousand-metre peak in the Dolomite Mountains. He was accompanied by fellow unicyclist Stephanie Dietze since one should never alone in high alpine terrain.
