The 2025 FIS Alpine World Ski Championships in Saalbach, Austria, have come to an end, leaving fans thrilled by spectacular performances, historic achievements, and unexpected surprises. Over nearly two weeks, the best skiers in the world battled through challenging conditions to claim the prestigious world titles. Switzerland emerged as the standout nation, leading the medal table with an impressive haul.
For the uninitiated, let's just make it clear what the Alpine World Ski Championship is all about. The Alpine Ski World Championships is a global competition organized by the International Ski Federation (FIS). It takes place every two years and sees the very best skiers in the world come together to compete across all the key alpine disciplines to crown a world champion in each.
The championships have taken place in a variety of ski resorts all over the world since its inception in 1931. This year, for its 48th edition, all the action is happening in Saalbach in the Austrian Alps, just south-west of Salzburg. It’s the second time the Austrian resort has held the event, last hosting the championships in 1991.
The presence of more than 22.000 passionate fans makes the World Cup races on the Zwölferkogel even more thrilling, with athletes commenting on how the roar of the crowd boosts their performance. The Zwölferkogel, which means '12 Peak', stands at 1,984m tall and is nestled in the stunning Pinzgauer Grasberge, part of the majestic Kitzbühel Alps.
This year’s World Ski Championship was full of memorable moments. One of the biggest headlines came from the newly introduced team combined event, where Switzerland took all three podium spots in the men’s category—an achievement never seen before in world championship history.
The duo of Franjo von Allmen and Loïc Meillard secured the gold medal with a combined time of 2:42.38, narrowly edging out their compatriots Alexis Monney and Tanguy Nef, who took silver. The bronze was claimed by another Swiss pair, Stefan Rogentin and Marc Rochat, completing the Swiss dominance in the event.
The individual events brought plenty of action. Loic Meillard dominated the men's slalom on Sunday, ensuring that the FIS Alpine Skiing World Championships Saalbach 2025 ended on a high note. For the fifth time in 12 days of competition, Switzerland stood atop the podium, with the red-clad skiers also winning five silver medals and three bronze medals - the best haul at a world championship for any nation this century.
In the men's downhill, 23-year-old Franjo von Allmen delivered a stunning performance, clinching the gold medal with a time of 1:40.68. This victory marked his first career major event medal and contributed significantly to Switzerland's medal tally
On the women’s side, Switzerland’s Camille Rast led a historic one-two finish in the slalom, securing gold with teammate Wendy Holdener taking silver. This marked Switzerland’s first gold in this discipline in 24 years, making it a long-awaited and emotional triumph.
Mikaela Shiffrin's absence from the podium was one of the biggest stories of the day. The American, who is considered to be one of the best female skiers in history, had medalled in slalom in every World Cup since her debut in 2013. However, after posting the third fastest time in the first run, she was unable to keep up the pace in the second and finished fifth, 1.37 seconds behind Camille Rast.
Switzerland was the clear winner in the medal standings, finishing with a total of 13 medals: 5 golds, 5 silvers, and 3 bronzes. This marks their most successful championship since 1987.

Austria followed closely behind with 7 podium finishes, particularly in the men’s events. Italy and the United States also had strong performances, with Italy making an early statement in the mixed team event, and the U.S. securing two key medals in the women’s races.
With the world championships now over, all eyes turn to the next major milestone in alpine skiing: the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan-Cortina in the Italian Alps. Many of the athletes who shined in Saalbach will be among the favourites for Olympic gold, making the upcoming World Cup season more exciting than ever. We're sure, fans around the world will be eagerly awaiting the next chapter in this incredible sport.
