Polartec Challenge


The Polartec® Challenge board is made up of an international panel of leading outdoor adventurers from a variety of disciplines.

Applications are evaluated, winners selected and the amount of the award are determined by the Polartec® Challenge Advisory Board. Projects for the Polartec® Challenge are evaluated on the basis of their originality, credibility, responsibility and their ability to serve as a role model for outdoor enthusiasts worldwide. We encourage small, frugal teams who can push the standards of contemporary adventure and contribute to the local environment and/or culture.
