    ​​​​​​​Alessandro is an Italian freelancer, who has made his passion for nature and mountains a second profession. He is a wildlife photographer who constantly undertakes car journeys across Europe in search of emotions to be translated into images. In the last years he published the photographic books "Bleik Inside", "Il giorno che non c'è" and "Dancing Lights" that narrate his way of living nature, mainly in uncontaminated places, among northern lights, alpine peaks, and wild animals. He was recently TedX's speaker on the topic TAKE CARE OF.
    Now he is involved, with the support of Zamberlan outdoor, in the organization of a polar expedition to the Svalbard islands. Here, he's going to check the ice conditions in the light of recent climate changes, and in the meantime search for the white bear: the expedition will take place during next winter. His love for the mountains led him to climb 23 mountains over 4000 meters, making the Lyskamm Crossing alone.

  • Janusz Golab (Poland)

    Great climber, famous mountaineer, active in the mountains since 1985. A member of the legendary "Dream Team" (next to Jack Fluder, Stanislaw Piecuch, later also Grzegorz Skorek), that , over the years, have climbed many of the finest alpine lines and contributed to making the history of Polish mountaineering, including a winter ascent along the face of the Troll Wall in Norway, and the first winter ascent of Manitua on the northern face of Grandes Jorasses in the Mont Blanc massif. He was also the first Polish to climb the Piola-Ghilini on the northern face of the Eiger. The culmination of his climbing successes was the demarcation, in 1999, of a new route on one of the hardest faces of the Himalayas - the Kedar Dome face (Himalayas Gharwalu). After a 10-year break, Janusz Golab resumed his climbing activity in 2012, when, together with Adam Bielecki, they made the first winter ascent of Gasherbrum I (8068m). Janusz Golab was twice awarded the prestigious Colossus prize and has recently received the Golden Cross of Merit (2015) from the President of Poland.


  • Marek Raganowicz 'Regan' (Poland)

    "Of course, I climb, and climbing is important to me. I also like travelling, writing, taking photographs and telling stories.
    I like to think that my adventures have only just begun, although I have already climbed many faces and mountains.
    Climbing fascinates me; the intensity of the experience, the variety of the landscape around me on the mountains, the challenges, the loneliness, the friendships, and the way people can be overwhelmed by their passion for climbing and the mountains.
    I could go on, but it’s sometimes better to leave things unsaid. We know only half of what there is to know, since most of the essence of people and things remains inexplicable and unknown...". 
    Last climb: new route on the Great Trango Tower (2013).



  • Nejc Marcic (Slovenia)

    "I was born in 1985 in Slovenia, and I reside in Bled, a small town at the edge of the Julian Alps. Despite having great mountains practically on my doorstep, I discovered my passion for climbing at the fairly late age of 20. I have outgrown hiking paths and mountain huts 8 years ago and thankfully, found my peace in the vertical world. My alpine climbing career led me from Slovenia, to France, Bolivia, Peru, Patagonia, Yosemite and finally to the Karakorum and Himalaya. My first expedition to the Himalayas happened in 2011 in Pakistan, where we climbed a new route on K7 west.
    The feel in my boots has improved dramatically ever since I have been cooperating with Zamberlan and most importantly, my feet have never been wet."


  • Mario Walder (Austria)

    Interview with Mario Walder (Austria), mountaineer
    Name: Mario Walder
    Date of birth: 1978
    Hometown: Amlach (Eastern Tyrol), Austria

    How important is ethics in climbing and what are your principles?
    Ethics is a fundamental value for me. I've done almost all of my first ascents in classic style. In my opinion it's very important that the old classics remain as they are. You should respect the style of the first climber as well as the mountain. To me there is nothing more beautiful than going into the mountains with friends and finding new ways.

    What would you do if you could no longer climb?
    I’ve never thought about it, I just climb.


  • Kevin Richardson (South Africa)

    Kevin’s unique relationships with these large predators have opened many doors and captivated the imagination of many people Richardson throughout the world.  He has presented and produced several documentaries that detail his relationships with the animals and highlight the plight of lions both in captivity and in the wild. Kevin has also written a book appropriately named, "Part of the Pride" detailing his work over the years with the large carnivores and is now affectionately known by his fans worldwide as “The Lion Whisperer”.  Zamberlan is very proud to have Kevin as member of the Zamberlan Ambassadors Team and to help him in his noble mission with its equipment.
