Grand anniversary in 2023

The International Mountain Film Festival turns 20 this year! The cinematic thrills on offer at Germany’s only open mountain film competition will be chosen in the moment.

In addition to the most engaging films, the festival programme will include a variety of special anniversary features.

Hardly any other backdrop could be more suited to a film festival that revolves around the mountains than pre-Alpine Lake Tegernsee. .” In addition to a high class programme, prominent guests from the German mountaineering scene such as Robert Jasper and David Göttler will be present. 

As exciting as the films is the question which productions will snatch an award at the festive closing ceremony hosted at Tegernsee Castle. As always, the international jury will scrutinise each film carefully in order to award prizes to the best.

Welcome at Tegernsee from 18^th to 22^nd October 2023!
