Val d'Aoste/Mont-Blanc, Courmayeur

Creator and coordinator of Horizon Montagne.

Born in 1966, I was an aspirant guide since 1986 then a mountain guide in 1989. Since 1988, I work at the Courmayeur guide company, founded in 1850 and first Italian guide company (and second in the world).

From 1995 to 2001, I was chief of the guides in this company with the main function of coordinating the work, promotion and sale of mountain products. Since 1986 I am also a rescuer in the alpine rescue team of the Aosta valley and I regularly carry out mountain rescue services under the aegis of the civil security. Since the year 2000 I am a regional mountain rescue instructor. My activity covers a all mountain disciplines and develops throughout the year.

In 30 years of activity I realized with my clients some of the biggest classic routes of mixed mountaineering, rock and ice, of the Alps. In 2002, I started an extra-European activity that took me through the mountains of the South American Andes of Argentina, Peru, Bolivia, Ecuador and Chile with my clients.

Great fan of these mountains I continue to discover each year with groups of people these fabulous mountains that are the Andes (see website Andes Experience).
