This website is dedicated to people who make multiple ascents of the same hill or mountain, and to the peaks that they ascend.

A 'peak-repeater' is someone who makes multiple ascents of a hill or mountain.

 ‘Poly-baggers’ are a sub-group of peak-repeaters.  They likewise enjoy reaching the summit of a particular hill or mountain many times (Greek: πολύ = much), but also keep reliable records of their ascents each year, and so qualify for inclusion in the annual Tables.

This website has these features:

• A register of the achievements of  peak-repeaters across the world, compiled from many sources - see here. This record is updated on a regular basis, as new and updated information is found.

• Each year a new Poly-baggers' Table (Hall of Fame and Progress Register) is added to this website, recording the ascents of people for whom accurate and reliable annual data is available - see here.

• Short profiles of hills and mountains that peak-repeaters climb - see here.

• A growing collection of articles about peak-repeaters, and the peaks they climb - see here. 

If you would like to make a claim to participate in the Annual Poly-bagging Tables and/or feature in the Peak-Repeaters' Register, please contact the HofMeister at pbhofmeister'at'gmail.com (replace 'at' with @).

The HoFMeister would also welcome information about other people and peaks that do not yet feature on this website.
