The beauty of VALLE D'AOSTA

Hi! Welcome to my seventeenth video posted on YouTube :-)
This episode is dedicated to an Italian region that doesn't need any introduction: the Aosta Valley!
The video is therefore deliberately concentrated in a few intense minutes and contains some photographic material that I've taken during many years of loving exploration of this whole splendid Valley, which the locals call “La Vallée”.
I also begin to have a lot of video material, thanks to my new passion for filming. The video footage mostly refers to some recent overnight stays in very strategic and significant Valdostan refuges and bivouacs: Pascal, Deffeyes and Bobba.
Thanks to the combination of all my material - photographic and cinematic - this document offers you the opportunity to undertake an extensive journey that ranges from the pinnacles amphitheater of Freney, to the Capanna Margherita, to the summit of Gran Paradiso, the Grand Combin, the Grivola, the Pointe Walker admired from the Malatrà plateau, to the Rutor waterfalls and its homonymous glacier, to the Italian face of the Mont Blanc massif, without missing the iconic Matterhorn (Cervino) accompanied by the Grandes Murailles.

My name is Roberto Bertero, I am a photographer-musician from Turin. I have been exploring the Alps for as long as I can remember and since 14 years I am devoted to photograph the most significant moments, up there, in the high mountains!

I’ve opened this YouTube channel, in order to document some of my adventures also through the video; a new experience for me, which I find very fascinating.
It goes without saying that the photographs I include in my videos are all available for sale on my website.

I usually hike alone, or sometimes in the company of my girlfriend. I believe that only in this way is it possible to hear the subtle intimate essence of certain places.
All places naturally speak to us, it is up to us to refine our ability to listen.

My aim is to share my alpine experiences lived at all hours and in all seasons.
So, through my works - which I hope will be more and more refined in capturing mountain's soul - you will see the Alps in all possible light conditions: twilight, dawn, daylight, sunset, blue hour, night… in the moonlight or beneath the magical mantle of the Milky Way.
Join me in this adventure! :-)
