Deuter is our longest-standing partner! 

deuter has been working with experienced mountain climbers for many years. Our extensive collaboration with the professional mountain experts from the German Alpine and Ski Guide’s Association has been especially beneficial.

German Initiative of mountain biking

The DIMB is committed to the promotion throughout Germany of amateur and competitive MTB sports, as well as free access to all trails, with respect for nature and social responsibility. As a result, the DIMB has not only been able to block mountain biking bans in many regions since 1991, but its lobbying work has also created a positive framework for the practice of mountain biking, and it has carried out important educational efforts. In addition, it provides advice and support for the preservation and creation of various MTB facilities and is committed to greater tolerance and positive interaction among all outdoor users.

The jDAV creates opportunities for youth work through professional and educational training. Through the dedication of its volunteers, it aims to train young people to become nature-conscious and self-reliant mountain sports enthusiasts.

German Alpine Association Mountaineering School

This partnership originated 25 years ago from a simple idea: the dirt bag. It was the DAV Summit Club that came up with the idea of an ultra-light dirtbag as a product to collect trail trash. They came to deuter to make it, and the rest is history – and cleaner natural environments. This collaboration continues to be fruitful. Currently, 80% of the Summit Club shop items are from deuter.
