NADIA VENTURETTI
Guida Escursionistica Verticalife
Hi! I'm Nadia Venturetti, also known as Trek it Wild on social media. I'm a hiking guide led by passion for the mountains and nature, my life teachers.
My passion didn't start when I was young, even though it has always been in my family DNA, growing up in a family of mountain people, alpine guides and farmers. It came instead during the start of my second life: I rediscovered the most authentic and essential values, started discovering beautiful places near or a bit further from home, traveling with a backpack, sleeping in a tent in places that for me are better than any five-star hotel.
And that's how I found my path. Becoming a guide was a dream, a life project, a new change born from the desire to accompany people to discover that extraordinary experiences can be lived not only with big trips, but also a few kilometers from home, the ones I like to call "Ready-to-wear adventures", all you have to do is leave, with the desire to be surprised and great things can happen, that's what happened to me.
I can't wait to see you on the trails to share many experiences and new adventures!
