A former elite cross-country skiing athlete, Baptiste discovered running and trail during his summer training phases. He gradually developed a taste for wide open spaces, speed, closeness to nature and the intensity this sport delivers — sensations very close to those of cross-country skiing.

In 2020, when he stepped back from elite cross-country skiing, he decided to fully commit to trail. Whatever the weather conditions or terrain, Baptiste knows he can count on Cimalp's support and guidance in his progression.

Alongside this, he works full-time as a Civil and Hydraulic Engineering engineer, specialising in dams. Hyperactive by nature, he proudly lives in the Vercors massif — a playground that gives him plenty of opportunities to let off steam!

Interview with Baptiste Lorier

3 words that define you as an athlete?

Hard-working. Conscientious. A sore loser!

3 values that define you as a person?

Sincerity, patience, curiosity.

Why do you feel you belong to the Cimalp family?

In terms of values: adventure, respect for nature and sharing! And we share the same vision: faster, higher, stronger!

Your best and worst memory in the mountains, and why?

The best: my first 4000m peak with my dad and brother, on the Dôme des Écrins. The worst: there isn't really one, except for the long outings in the rain!

What do the mountains inspire in you?

Freedom, challenge and calm.

What is your relationship with the environment and ecology?

Every small gesture from every person counts — it's never too late to start…

Another great passion / talent beyond sport?

I'm a good cook. Well, I think so… !
