Poederbaas Freeride Festival Kappl
A week of powder, community and festival atmosphere in the mountains: at the Poederbaas Freeride Festival in March 2027, Kappl will become the meeting place for the international freeride scene.
What you can expect:
- Freeride action in alpine terrain
- Freeride Clinics & Snowsafety-Workshops
- NK/BK Freeride Competition & Vertical Skimo
- Rail Contest and legendary Waterslide Contest
- Daily après-ski in the sheepfold
What once began as a freeride competition among friends has developed into a unique event – with freeriding, competitions, workshops, après-ski and parties high above the Alps. During the day, participants head out into the open terrain to explore new lines and push their personal limits. At clinics and snow safety workshops, professionals share their knowledge, the latest equipment can be tried out at the test centre, and riders from the Netherlands and Belgium compete in alpine terrain. And after the last run? Then it's time to celebrate together at the Schafstall, at après-ski or at the mountain parties.

Today, the festival combines sporting competitions, freeride sessions and parties in the mountains. A particularly large number of riders travel from the Netherlands and Belgium, making Kappl the meeting place for the Dutch freeride scene every year.
