About us

Alessandro

For his friends... Piccia!! He is the new manager of the Battiferro, left to him by Adolfo himself.

Alessandro, also called "certificate man" (he seems to have more done more courses than a mountain guide), is active, enterprising and often stubborn.

Raised on skis, he's an established ski mountaineer, trekking instructor, and activity park rescuer and instructor.

He took to pole dancing for a while... but that’s a story for another time!! He has been a member of the Italian Alpine Club since he was born and is the youngest member to have been registered.

Brunella

Or as her nephew calls her... "aunt pilollo" is a serial heartbreaker (in the Battiferro Park we registered 168 in a single day).

Brunella is a simple, bright and energetic girl (just don't let her near a sofa) and is a true connoisseur of spectacular sunsets and the wonders that nature offers.

She is at the beginning of her experience in this sector but has already decided that she will deal with the reception base, and we can imagine why!!

Aurora

The youngest in the team, catapulted into this world, she often looks confused and wonders... what am I doing here?!?

Energetic and tireless, extreme lover of the sea and expert in Tik Tok dances (if you come across a girl in the Apuan Alps making strange yeti-like movements, don't be afraid ... it's just her)

Adolfo

Energetic and full of life (where he found it will remain a mystery), he unfortunately left us a short time ago. As he was the first to rediscover the Battiferro Park and manage it for 10 years, we wanted to pay tribute to him by putting his name first in this list... because it is as if he were still here with us.

Adolfo was an environmental guide of other times, a solid rock, and he taught his ways to many of us.

In addition to the park, he had thousands of other interests and projects. We will never know where he found all that energy and time (they say he did not even stop to eat). As we said above... it will remain a mystery.

Ferruccio

A little more diplomatic than Adolfo, they were best friends for over 15 years... they almost seemed like a couple (as far as we know they did everything together...)

Ferruccio is a mountaineer and environmental guide, who was part of the Italian alpine rescue corps and, together with Adolfo, he rediscovered the Battiferro Park.

Now he prefers to stop at the local restaurant; he says that sitting at a table is, without a shadow of a doubt, more comfortable... And we can believe that!!

Cristina

Wife of Adolfo, an energetic and tough woman (it seems that before getting married she must have gone through a real survival course... otherwise we can’t understand how she survived so long!).

Legend has it that every year, before the park opens, she "armed herself" and did a thourough spring clean; even the stones shone when she had finished!!

She has dedicated much of her time to the park and it is her second home, so it seemed right that she should still have a copy of the keys.
