Dyanfit speed factory: The New Outdoor Hub at the Gates of the Alps

In the picturesque northern lands of the Alps, specifically in the Bavarian town of Kiefersfelden, the Dynafit brand is undertaking an ambitious undertaking: the construction of the Dynafit Speed Factory, its futuristic headquarters that will see the light of day by December 2023. This eclectic steel and glass building will not only be the beating heart of DYNAFIT, housing more than a hundred employees, but will also open up to visitors, immersing them in new worlds through its innovative public areas. The anticipation is great, and finally on March 15, 2024, the doors to this extraordinary and exciting reality will open wide.

Not new to the Oberalp Group are these constructions that, with an eye to the future and a foot in the past, pay homage to the immensity of the Dolomites. In 2011, in fact, Oberalp built Salewa’s headquarters in Bolzano inspired by the very forms of the famous mountain group. Today, 200 kilometers further north in the Bavarian Pre-Alps, a new landmark for outdoor enthusiasts is rising: the new Dynafit headquarters, a sister brand of Salewa and also part of the Oberalp Group. Here, too, the architecture looks to the future, with the bright mountain spires of the two 32-meter-high towers fitting effortlessly, however, into the beautiful surrounding mountain landscape.
