Environmental Hiking Guides
Marco Bo
Hello I am an environmental hiking guide, a "Forest Bathing" instructor and trainer, and natural food consultant.
I have been involved in natural wellness for 25 years. I propose "Forest Bathing" wellness days or weekends in the Elvo Valley and in Oasi Zegna, and I propose the Oropa Way in Meditative version in groups.
Francis Cartolano
Environmental Hiking Guide class of 1991. I work as a guide with schools, with groups on day hikes, and with various Tour Operators leading multi-day treks, including the Oropa Trail. I look forward to taking you hiking with me!
Fiorella Giarrizzo
Good knowledge of the Santhià/Oropa stage, the area surrounding Viverone Lake, the Serra Morenica, the Bessa Park, the ancient gold mine now a nature reserve, the Valsessera among the remains of factories and nature, the Oropa Valley and the Cervo Valley among shrines, erratic boulders beech forests and strange stories.
Lorenzo Perotti
I am an Environmental Hiking Guide and Bicycle Tour Leader. I am particularly fond of the "Tracciolino," the road that connects the two sides of Mombarone. I lead hikers and bikers up to the important Sanctuary of Oropa, but my real passion is going to rediscover the ancient mule tracks in the area.
Arturo Ramella
My experience extends beyond leading hikes, working with walking associations and international tour operators. My goal is to infuse a touch of adventure into every walk and I aim not only to guide through trails but also to create connections, both with Nature and between people.
Diletta Zanella
Environmental Hiking Guide with a passion for nature, hiking and chatting. I collaborate with the Wool Travel Experience group, a network of operators active in tourist accommodation. My purpose is to educate people about moving in nature, approaching a simpler lifestyle in which human relationships are more immediate and spontaneous.
Bicycle Tour Leaders
Alessandro Beata
I have been leading individuals and groups of people on bicycle routes immersed in nature in complete safety with professionalism for over 10 years.
With a spirit of adventure I make the 5 Senses sensory experiences, thus discovering the territory of the Upper Piedmont in its landscape, cultural and food and wine aspects.
Ludovico Bizzocchi
I am a mountain bike instructor, a Bicycle Tour Leader for the Piedmont Region and a trainer for the Region. I love and respect the environment, nature and the outdoors and have made it not only a passion, but also a job.
I organize bike tours to discover the territory, by telling its peculiarities, without forgetting the technical aspect.
Gianni Iorio
I offer mountain bike accompaniments in the area ranging from easy to difficult, both physical and technical preparation.
Knowledge of the area, professionalism, seriousness and a lot of fun are my gifts. Among my services: basic mechanical assistance and first aid (former 118 Volunteer Instructor), possibility of daily accident insurance.

Our progress is slow but deliberate.
We are a social cooperative-tour operator, a network of individuals and associations in Italy and around the world. Our story began in the late 1990s, when a handful of people began to question the meaning of mass tourism. Traveling and getting to know projects related to fair trade gave birth to the idea of starting a social enterprise that would disrupt the paradigms of tourism and work in direct contact with the civil society of the places visited, with people and associations directly involved in development projects.
