Gipfeltreffen 2025: three Alpine routes and one passion for driving

Porsche Gipfeltreffen 2025 in Bolzano united enthusiasts across Italy, Austria, and the Dolomites. Three days, three routes, one shared love for driving.

Three days, three countries, and three dream routes became symbols of pure driving passion. In late October 2025, Porsche hosted the third Gipfeltreffen, bringing together hundreds of brand enthusiasts in Bolzano under the motto Amore Motore. Here, it didn’t matter which Porsche you drove – only that you drove.

The event continued a tradition that began in 2023, when Porsche first invited its community to conquer Alpine roads together. After journeys through Tyrol and Grossglockner, this year’s summit explored new horizons – Italy, Austria, and South Tyrol. The format remained familiar: three days of motion, shared emotions, and the realization that mountain passes are not challenges but conversations between driver and machine.

The 2025 edition started at Parkhotel Mondschein in Bolzano. Nearly seventy cars – from a classic 1970 911 ST to the all-electric Taycan Turbo GT with the Weissach package – set off on the road. Communities like Heizr, Petro Surf, Curves, Onassis, and Type 7 joined in, each bringing its own culture yet united by the same love of driving.

Day one led the convoy toward Lake Garda, through vineyards and the winding Mendel Pass. Day two unfolded across the Dolomites, where a chain of passes – Niger, Rolle, Duran, Pordoi – turned the journey into a symphony of curves. The final leg crossed into Austria, climbing the legendary Timmelsjoch and descending the Ötztal valley, pausing at the ice Q restaurant in Sölden, known from the James Bond film Spectre.

Between each stage, what remained were not just kilometers but new bonds. Amore Motore became more than a motto – it defined a state of mind, where the sound of an engine spoke a universal language.

Porsche once again emphasized community over spectacle. The 2025 routes are set to appear in the Porsche Roads app, allowing drivers to relive the experience in spring 2026.

The philosophy of Gipfeltreffen endures: it’s a meeting of people for whom cars are more than machines – they are an expression of self. The next destination remains unannounced, but history suggests that wherever it leads, the art of movement will thrive again.
