Trail Coach

Roberto Rivola is an ultrarunning coach and mountain running guide with a passion for mountain and desert races. He has run 10 stage races up to 250 km in different deserts (Sahara, Gobi, Atacama, Namibia) and in rough terrain (Hawaii, Grand Canyon, Iceland). The Engadine mountains are his home, therefore mountain running competitions up to 170 km are also part of his palmarès, among others Swissalpine, Irontrail, Swisspeaks, etc., mostly with podium finishes in his age group.
Roberto has explored practically every trail in the Engadine valley and is a trained communicator. Accordingly, he can explain the Engadine mountain world to you in English, German, Italian and French and give trail running advice in each of these languages as well.
