We started Mint Experiences for one reason: the best stories of your life shouldn't be left to chance. So we go and make them — on purpose.
For years we kept coming back to the same valley in the Italian Alps. Valle Mosso. Quiet, unglamorous, impossibly beautiful. We learned its trails, befriended the people who pour the espresso and run the refuges, and watched friends leave changed — lighter, fuller, telling the same stories for months afterward.
That's the whole idea behind Mint Experiences. We're not a tour company shuttling people past viewpoints. We're a small crew of locals and obsessives who believe a trip should leave a mark — a memory you'll be retelling for the rest of your life.
We handle the hard parts — the routes, the logistics, the hidden lakes most travellers never find — so you get the easy part. Showing up. Being present. Living it.
We'd rather slow down for a sunrise than tick off another summit. The goal was never distance — it's the moments you'll never forget.
No crowds, no megaphones. Eight to twelve people, a guide who knows your name, and the kind of trust that turns strangers into the people you call first.
Our guides live in these mountains. The tables we book are family-run. Every trip puts money and care back into the valleys we love.
You won't remember the wifi. You'll remember the summit.
Tucked into the Biellese Alps of Piedmont, Valle Mosso is our starting line — a working alpine town far from the tour-bus trail. From here, the high refuges, the lakes, and the road to Switzerland are all within reach.
It's not the Italy on the postcards. It's better — and we'd love to show it to you.
Trips open soon. Join the list and you'll be first to know — plus the occasional dispatch from the mountains.
