Karl Egloff is a Swiss mountaineer and athlete known for holding multiple speed records on some of the highest mountains in the world. Born in Ecuador to a local mother and a Swiss mountain guide, he has made a name for himself in the sports community, particularly in mountain biking and trail running. After a traumatic robbery incident in Ecuador in 2022, which left him and his family feeling unsafe, Egloff relocated to Switzerland. Despite the challenges, he remains focused on his goal of conquering the Seven Summits, aiming to set speed records on each peak, with a particular focus on Mount Everest.
