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.

Testimonials For ISM

Our three guides were all excellent: Thomas, Phil and Paulo. I can't speak highly enough of them. They were all good company and superb climbers, and patient with us all.

Summits & Skills 4000m (Instructional Course)

Terry was a wonderful guide and made everything fun, laid-back and an overall good experience. I would be happy to ski or climb with him again. All the logistics in Leysin and in Italy went smoothly. A really nice time.
