Train to Mountain gives your members a free, science-backed readiness check before they attempt a big objective. A member benefit they will actually use, and a quiet safety layer that means fewer of them arrive at the mountain underprepared.
Free readiness check for members · No contract · Built by mountain athletes
Your members are getting bolder. The objectives are getting bigger. The one thing your club cannot see from the newsletter is whether the person heading up their first 4,000m (13,100 ft) peak has actually done the training to get back down safely. That gap is where the incidents live.
You already give your members community, skills, and safety culture. Train to Mountain adds the training layer between the ambition and the objective, offered under your club, at no cost to your members.
Your member answers a short set of questions about their fitness, longest day, terrain, recovery, altitude history, and the peak they are eyeing. The same Banister fitness-fatigue model behind the Train to Mountain algorithm returns a Summit Readiness Score and shows exactly where the gap is. No account required to see the number.
Above 70: ready. Below: not yet, and the report shows the gap and how many weeks it takes to close. On track. Building. Behind. A band, a colour, a plain-English verdict a member can act on.
It is the safety talk your club has always wanted to give, delivered by a number instead of a lecture.

Founder-led, personal reply. Usually within a few days. No mailing lists, no drip sequences.
Nothing. The readiness check is free for your members to take and free for your club to offer. Early association partners help shape a club-branded version and keep first-mover terms. No contract, no lock-in.
No. We do not run skills days, guiding, or in-person courses. Train to Mountain covers the physical preparation between a member deciding on an objective and standing at its base. It complements the safety and skills education your club already provides.
No. You share one link in your newsletter or member portal. Members check themselves whenever they need to. There is no per-member admin, no logins for your team to manage, no data for your club to hold.
A club-branded readiness check and landing page is on the roadmap. It is not live on day one. If it matters to your club, tell us in the form and we will prioritise it with our early association partners.
The readiness check does not require an email to see the number. Answers are aggregated, not attributed. A member only shares a result if they choose to. Full policy at privacy_policy.html.
A leaflet cannot tell a specific member whether they are ready for a specific peak on a specific date. This does. It uses the Banister fitness-fatigue model, a peak-specific demand curve, and a set of sub-scores that combine into one honest Summit Readiness Score, with a plan to close the gap.
