Paolo Intropido

IFMGA Italian Mountain Guide

Born in NW Italy in a region surrounded by mountains, Paolo started to ski and trek as a kid, always wanting to explore 'beyond the next hill'.

He has travelled to ski and climb in Scotland, USA, Canada, Nepal, Chile, Morocco and Mali, but his preferred mountains are in his backyard - the Alps. From Mont Blanc to the Dolomites, a lifetime is not enough to know the whole range. As a Mountain Guide, Paolo is well known for his patient and easy-going attitude. He likes every mountain activity, following the seasons through the year - rock climbing in autumn and spring, ice-climbing and skiing in winter, alpinism in summer - and likes to share this passion. Paolo is proud to be part of the very experienced ISM team and enjoys the international atmosphere of ISM.

I just wanted to thank you as well as Mark, our guide for the amazing week. The course was well organized and was just perfect for a beginner to mountaineering. We couldn't have wished for a better adventure. The memories are irreplaceable.

“What an incredible week learning the basics of Mountaineering. The course is perfectly balanced between summiting high alpine peaks and learning rope, climbing and glacier skills.

What a brilliant week we had! I really enjoyed the fact that the course was very hands on and we were given freedom and responsibility to look after ourselves. I really like the fact that the price was all-inclusive, the the course was excellent value for money!
