In the local folkore the Twergi are mountain creatures, similar to the Pixie, dressed with leaves, custodians of ancient wisdom, and among the first settlers of Ossola. Clever little creatures that in Winter shelter in the cavities of the old beech trees or into the mine tunnels. It is said that they taught the moutain people to use ash to wash clothes and to process milk to produce cheese.
My name is Marco, I was born in Verbania.
For several years I worked in an alpine hut in the Formazza valley, living the mountain in every season, place that i love to live in a direct contact. Thats why i love also doing long alpine trekkings.
In 2015 I became an hiking guide, in 2016 Nordic walking instructor and in 2019 Val Grande National Park official guide.
I currently carry out the profession of hiking guide trying to convey the love for nature and the territory to those who participate in my trekkings.
