The mountains are my passion.
But they’re also my work.
They’ve become a natural part of who I am.
I’ve always experienced the mountains as an intimate, genuine, and simple place — a place to approach with deep respect, in search of silence and tranquility.
Alongside hiking, another passion always accompanies me: wildlife photography.
It forces you to slow down, to observe the details, to approach flora and fauna with care. It teaches you to listen.
You’ll never find yourself in large groups on my excursions. I prefer small groups — people seeking the same inner peace, the same deep connection with nature.
We move far from crowded destinations, along forgotten trails and old paths. Each step is a discovery, every place has its story.
I love long treks, non-obvious routes — the kind you have to interpret, reading the terrain like an invisible map.
The treks I offer are shaped by a simple philosophy: respect for nature, and attention to those who walk with me.
That’s why they’re designed to create authentic, meaningful experiences — in harmony with the environment around us.
My name is Marco, and I was born in Verbania.
For several years, I worked in alpine mountain huts in the upper Val Formazza and in Val Cairasca, experiencing the mountains in every season — an environment I love and where I enjoy living in close contact with nature.
In 2015, I became a certified hiking guide; in 2016, a Nordic walking instructor; and in 2019, an official guide of the Val Grande National Park.
In 2025, I also became a Snow Observer certified by AINEVA.
Today, I work full-time as a hiking guide, aiming to share my love for nature and the territory with those who join my excursions.
