Matteo Faletti
Matteo Faletti was born in 1977 in Trento, in the southern portion of
the Dolomites, between Bolzano and Lake Garda. Both of his parents
were very mountain-oriented, and from an early age they took him and his
two brothers on adventures. Exploring the surrounding mountains
definitely planted a seed for the destiny of all three boys. Not surprisingly, Matteo and both his brothers are also certified
Mountain Guides!
Matteo
guides climbing and ski trips in the Dolomites, but he doesn’t stop
there. Nearby he leads trips from canyoning around Lake Garda to
climbing the highest peaks in the Western Alps. He also leads ski
touring adventures in Norway, Canada, and Japan, always seeking the best
snow in faraway locations. Beyond guiding, Matteo has visited Mexico and Guatemala. He has explored
South America from northern Chile to southern Argentina, including
Patagonia, climbing the most impressive and challenging mountains. On
the African continent he has traveled to both Jordan and the Republic of
Chad. When he is not guiding, Matteo spends time with his family, and
his young son and daughter take up the majority of his free time. That
said, he still finds time to climb, establishing new climbing routes and
first ascents, and to tackle off-piste steeps skiing the backcountry,
always in search of new couloirs to ski, and new adventures to be had.
Matteo is fluent in Italian and English, and speaks some German, French, and a little bit of Spanish.
