Hasse Olsson – Gear & Gourmet
Did you hang out in the bar Tango in French Val Thorens in the early 90´s?
Did you notice the nice colors in the bar? Well then Hasse just did that nice
painting job! His first four winter seasons were spent in Val Thorens, working
as carpenter, wardrobe host and door keeper, but mainly the days were spent
in the gorgeous ski area of Les Trois Vallées, skiing favorite runs on Cime de
Caron. After that the strong Stockholm skier went up to continue ski bumming
in Åre for some years.
In the early 00´s Hasse ended up in the Ayas valley and the impressive ski
area of Monterosa. Here he found his favorite spot where he constantly turns
back to spend both winter and summer seasons. Italy and it´s Alps have more
than skiing that attracts this gourmet and wine interested guide of ours. The
favorite happening of Hasses, is the Vinitaly wine fair of Verona in spring time.
Here our guides go to “develop” the skills and knowledge of wine and grappa
pleasures. The summer Alps of Aosta Valley also keeps Hasse in its spell. Climbing,
alpinism and sky running have become some other passions for this mountaineer.
Hasse also worked a lot at Alpingaraget Stockholm, and nourished his interest
in gear and equipment. This made him the natural gear adviser and kit man of
Alpine Legends. He might seem a bit morose at the start, but a chuckle is always
hiding right behind the blond beard. As a guide Hasse is a perfectionist. The guests
are always to be treated with the perfect combination of fantastic skiing, great
wines and dining experiences according to his own demands. Hasse has developed
his guiding skills the last years and loves to bring clients around both Switzerland
and Austria, but if he can choose he sweepes around the Dolomiti Superski or the
Valtellina powder spots in Italy, to show his preferred slopes and bars. Courmayeur
is another favorite spot of Hasses.
As a guest you can feel safe to be delivered nice ski runs and the best possible
espresso around, but also you have your own technical support just by your side!
