Loris Marin

Loris was born and raised in the countryside, an ideal playground to develop his love for the outdoors, especially the mountains. His journey began exploring the nearby Dolomites with his father, hiking and discovering the region's beauty. During his time in the Army, he was part of the athletes’ division for trail running and biathlon, and in between races, he served on the Army rescue team. Later, he became a climbing instructor, even teaching children, and he is now a certified UIMLA guide. While studying at university, he worked as a photographer and copywriter for Italian outdoor sports magazines like PlanetMountain, ALP, and Pareti. Work and leisure have taken him to many different countries, from Nepal to Tibet and China, exploring mountain ranges worldwide. However, the Dolomites hold the top place in his heart.

The thing that I love in being a guide, is to show people the things that still enchant me: the forest and the infinite colors of the sunsets, the sound of falling snow, fascinate me today as the first time.”
