Leadership Expeditions Guide

Nico graduated as an Ecotourism Project Manager from Professional Institute Duoc UC. He is a nature and wildlife photographer, mountaineer, rock climber and bird watcher. His work involves outdoor education, wilderness expeditions, training technical outdoor skills, leadership and teamwork development. He has worked as a mountain and leadership expeditions guide on several mountaineering, trekking and rock climbing expeditions since 2008. Since childhood he has had an interest in the outdoors and nature. Now he simply cannot live away from it.

Since 2006 he has explored different corners of the world, its cultures, landscapes and the particular way in which local people live and interact with nature. This has led him to get involved in sustainability. His journey began in the Chilean Andes and Patagonia. It continued worldwide, including the Peruvian Inca world and the Cordillera Blanca, Tibet, the Himalayas, India, Thailand, several other countries in Southeast Asia, the USA, Venezuela, and Iceland. His last adventure was driving across the USA and climbing The Grand Teton, Devils Tower in Wyoming and trekking the Mont Blanc Circuit in Europe. Nico has worked with Vertical for the past decade.
