Originally from Valais, mountains have always been part of Jonas’ daily life. They have shaped his character, his relationship with effort, and his deep attachment to nature. At 17, an accident turned his life upside down and marked the start of a long reconstruction process.
Thanks to sports, and more particularly paratriathlon, Jonas has learned to push his limits and turn a challenge into a driving force. In 2024, he embarked on high-level sport and became double Swiss paratriathlon champion as well as Swiss handbike vice-champion.
Today, he is pursuing a clear goal: to represent Switzerland at the Los Angeles 2028 Paralympic Games. Alongside sporting performance, he is developing documentary film projects and creating powerful images to tell his story with sincerity and convey values of resilience, commitment, and self-transcendence.
Being an athlete ambassador for Region Dents du Midi is, for him, a way to stay true to his roots while reaching further, higher. Spending time in these magnificent mountain landscapes gives him the energy and desire to dream. Through his sports and creative projects, Jonas want to show that limits are often where we place them.
Jonas’s motto:
« They didn’t know it was impossible, so they did it. »
