Format

Trophy

In the Trophy format, participants collect checkpoints – passes, summits or villages – at their own pace, across a whole season. The most popular LaceUp format.

Checkpoints are zones on the map – no stamps, boxes or installations in the terrain.

  • Connect Strava or Garmin once – every visited checkpoint is recognised automatically
  • No sports watch? Check in by scanning a QR code at the checkpoint or straight in the browser
  • All formats work without an extra app – keeping the barrier low
  • Badges at five, ten or all points keep motivation up for months
  • Staggered scores make lesser-known destinations attractive too

Try the check-in yourself

We set a checkpoint exactly where you are standing, and five more in villages around you. This is how participants experience a Trophy: no app, just their phone.

  1. Share your location
  2. Collect the checkpoint
  3. Five more around you
