ICE & PALMS

Ice & Palms [Eis & Palmen] - Bikepacking across the alps and skiing iconic mountains along the way - no motor allowed!
The documentary follows skiers Jochen Mesle and Max Kroneck on their most ambitious ski tour yet. A 100% self powered adventure from southern Germany all the way to the mediterranean sea.





We combined our main passions: Skiing, cycling and the mountains – just that.
- Jochen Mesle
Eis & Palmen - the book
The trip goes on! When we set off for Nice in April 2018, no one thought that we would even end up writing a book about this adventure. Now it happened. An illustrated book with the best photos of the trip, personal travel reports and details that found no place in the film. 192 pages across the Alps by bike and ski.
