Distance·25kmWe'll meet up in Beaufort early in the morning (9AM) for the start of this traverse. You'll gradually gain height on old forest paths, in the heart of beech and fir forests. Along the way, views open up over the Mont-Blanc massif and the villages of the Beaufortain.
The stage ends at the Mountain hut de la Croix de Pierre, perched high above the mountains, where a mountain meal awaits you and your first night at altitude.

EnglishAs a mountain leader and ecologist by training, I see the mountains as a real adventure.
A keen trail runner, I like to follow the ridges, connect the valleys and feel the freedom of movement at altitude. Bivouacking is at the heart of what I do: sleeping outdoors, living to the rhythm of the elements, prolonging the immersion. Every outing becomes a human adventure, a space for learning and shared wonder.
You can get to Albertville station by train.
From there, take a bus to Arêches-Beaufort with line 21

You don’t need to be a top athlete or adventure expert to feel at home. Most Wildhartt participants are between 25 and 60 years old, with a balanced mix of women and men.
Many join solo or in small groups of two or three. They often live in cities and are looking for a meaningful brea some time to reconnect with nature, slow down, and enjoy something real.
They usually have a regular movement practice (hiking, running, yoga...), but not with a competitive mindset. They’re in good shape, but don’t necessarily have technical skills. What brings them together is a shared desire to disconnect, observe, learn, and experience nature in a more grounded, accessible way.
If that speaks to you, you'll feel right at home. The group spirit is kind and open, and the pace adapts to everyone.
At Wildhartt, transparency is essential. The price of your expedition reflects a clear breakdown of costs:
