Welcome to Italy and Italiaoutdoors · I have been living in guiding outdoor activities in Italy for over 20 years. During this time, I feel, I have accumulated a good knowledge base of where to go and what to do in the northern regions of the country. I offer private guide program's and vacation planning for individuals who would like to visit the area. I have also developed this website as a guidebook and travel planning platform for active vacations; so that you can better understand what there is to do, where you can go to do specific activities, and how you can combine outdoor activities with exploring all of Italy's attractions, from nature, food, wine, history, and culture.· I tried to leave the marketing and general hyping of the area, that I write articles about, to the commercial travel sites and tourist boards, and give you straight forward planning information. I am trying to hold true to the spirit of the web and wish to use it as a medium to share knowledge and information I've come across with other active travelers. I hope you find my site useful and enjoy exploring it; if you are ever in need of guide service while visiting Northern Italy, I hope you keep me in mind.
