True stories

Tell your true story, share your mountain experiences with other readers

These pages tell true mountain stories, accounts and experiences. Many people have a story to tell.

Real life experiences are those moments you know you’re really alive and experiencing something special.

If you want to write about your story and tell others about a day spent in my company I’ll be happy to post your story.

Writing true stories

Even if I wasn’t there but your experience was important and you feel that your story is of interest to those who love the mountains as we do, write to me and I’ll post your story.

“True stories'” will be posted only if the editors consider them to be interesting and relevant to the contents of the site. They must contain a title, the date of the event, photos and the author’s name, surname and town of residence.
