Prince Hubertus of Hohenlohe-Langenburg (born 2 February, 1959 in Mexico City) is a Mexican Alpine skier. The descendant of a dethroned royal family from a former principality in what is now Germany, Hohenlohe, who is also a photographer, businessman, and a pop singer known as Andy Himalaya, founded the Mexican Ski Federation in 1981 and first skied for Mexico at a Winter Olympics at the 1984 games in Sarajevo.

A son of Prince Alfonso of Hohenlohe-Langenburg and Princess Ira of Fürstenberg, Hubertus was born in Mexico, of which his paternal grandmother was a native, too. He is fluent in several languages and grew up in Europe, mainly Austria, of which he is also a citizen. Hohenlohe had a brother named Christoph. He currently resides in Liechtenstein.

After the 1984 Winter Olympics, Hohenlohe managed to participate in three more Olympic Games. He qualified for the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin, Italy, but the Mexican Olympic Committee decided not to send a one-man team to the Winter Games that year.

Hohenlohe has stated that the only reason why he continues participating is because it seems that the "exotic skiers" (those from countries without a tradition in winter sports) are disappearing, and that he wants to keep that tradition alive.Fact|date=February 2007 Since 1982, he has participated in 11 World Cups, and is also the first winter athlete from Mexico.Fact|date=February 2007 Hohenlohe was expected to retire following the 2007 Alpine Skiing World Championships, but after breaking his leg during a World Cup slalom race on January 28, 2007, eliminating him from the competition in Åre.
