Moritz has always been the kid that wanted to be outdoors and play in the mountains with endless energy. Born in Germany, he spent his childhood vacations in the Alps either skiing or hiking, playing in creeks, or building. At age 11, he and his family moved to Calgary, Canada, and started exploring the Rockies.
The Handle-Bar is his answer to making his passion for the outdoors his job. A playful approach to the backcountry and an attitude of taking everybody along is key to the Handle-Bar adventures.
He received most of his guiding certificates and licenses through the Mountain Adventure Skills Training program in Fernie, BC. As well as professional experience in the Canadian Rockies. He went back to Germany and Austria to get a degree in International Business Management and Hotel Management, learned some decent baking, cooking, and business skills. He is now ready to take you on tours and feed you some good foods from the Alps.
