Arc’teryx Presents: Going East

“Going East”, an Arc’teryx film, is a self-documented ski adventure documentary that follows a group of skiers on an ambitious mission: to travel as far east as possible using only public transport—and ski along the way. Over three weeks and more than 140 hours in transit, they navigate diverse mountain ranges, immerse themselves in new cultures, and redefine what a ski trip can be.

Blending elements of a ski trip vlog with the depth of a backcountry skiing documentary, “Going East” explores sustainable ski travel across Europe while capturing the joy, spontaneity, and challenges of adventure skiing. As they chase snow without a car, the skiers come to realize that the journey—rich in discovery and connection—is just as meaningful as the descents themselves. A standout Arc’teryx film for Ski Film 2025, it’s an inspiring testament to skiing and culture, slow travel, and the power of curiosity on and off the slopes.
