What you will experience

A progressive itinerary that alternates between the comfort of a gîte and the authenticity of a night in a mountain hut during a mini ski raid.
Ski to 2,467m at the summit of Gilly, with the sharp silhouette of Mount Viso dominating neighbouring Italy as a backdrop.
Pass through the Marassan larch forest, its wide, snow-covered couloirs offering powdery descents in a picture-postcard setting.
Spend a night in an isolated Mountain hut perched high above Molines-en-Queyras, where the warden's meal warms you up after the mountain passes.
Discover the Mayt pass, nicknamed "no man's land": a white desert where the horizon seems infinite and untouched by any trace.

Super expérience ! Nous avons fait le sommet du Grand Paradis et tout était trop bien organisé. Le guide Marco a été incroyable et nous a emmenée au sommet ! Merci encore à toute l’équipe Wildhartt, à Marco et à toutes notre team ❤️
Excellente expérience de la réservation initiale jusqu’a la fin du séjour.Communication facile avec un interlocuteur privilégié (messagerie ou appel téléphonique). Par manque de personnes pour la date initiale, l’agence a réorganisé avec flexibilité notre voyage.Une semaine avant le voyage la mise en place d’un groupe whatsapp incluant le guide a facilité les préparatifs.Le groupe a été vraiment sympathique (franco-belge) réuni autour de la même passion de la découverte du ski alpinisme.Malgré que l’agence soit belge et loin des montagnes, le guide engagé était bel et bien un local connaissant très bien son métier.
Super experience avec cette organisation. Top guide et top destinations
De retour d'expédition ski de rando autour du col du grand st Bernard, des paysages magnifiques, des refuges au top , de bons petits plats réconfortants suite aux efforts, groupe tres sympathique, à refaire, vraiment enchantée !
Un grand merci pour cette expédition, tout a été parfaitement organisé, avec des adaptations de dernières minutes vis à vis des conditions pas évidentes. Amadeo notre guide nous accompagné pendant ces 4 jours, nous a partagé son savoir, il nous a fait découvrir des itinéraires différents tous les jours et c’était magique 😍 je ne peux que vous recommander à 100% de partir à l’aventure avec Wildhartt !!

Frequently asked questions

How big is the group?

For this expedition, we prefer a group of no more than 6 people so that your guides have time to concentrate on each of you.

What do I do if I need to hire ski touring equipment?

If you don't have your own ski touring equipment (touring skis, skins, knives, poles), we can hire it for you: all you have to do is pick it up from the local shop with your guide on the first day of the expedition.

What equipment do I need?

Once your registration has been confirmed, we'll send you a personalised roadbook for your trip containing all the practical information you need, including a list of equipment you'll need to take.

Will I have to carry a rucksack on the various hikes?

No, as we'll be doing star hikes for the first three nights at the gîte, you won't have to carry your whole rucksack, as you can leave most of your belongings there and only take a light bag with you on the hikes. However, for the mini-raid with a night in a refuge on the 4th night, you will have to carry your rucksack on the 4th and 5th days, as no luggage transfer is planned.

How comfortable are the gîte and refuge?

The gîte and high mountain refuge offer a certain level of comfort: you'll sleep in beds with blankets provided (just bring a meat bag for hygiene reasons). You'll also have access to hot showers, and the gîte is equipped with heating, so you can rest easy after an intense day.

Are instalment payment options available?

Yes, that's right! At checkout, you can choose the Alma option to pay for your booking in 2x, 3x or 4x. All you have to do is select Alma at checkout and follow the instructions. It's simple, fast and secure.

Can I privatise this expedition for my group?

Yes, all our expeditions can be privatised for a group already formed, on the dates of your choice.

To make your request, go to the expedition that interests you and click on "Privatise the expedition". We'll take care of the rest!

What happens if the weather is bad?

At Wildhartt, nature is our playground, rain or shine. Rain, snow or wind: our guides adapt the itinerary, activities and accommodation to guarantee you the best possible experience.
Unless safety is at stake (storm, avalanche, flood...).


In this exceptional case, we can cancel an expedition, at least one week before departure.
If this happens:
→ You can postpone your adventure at no cost,
→ Or receive a full refund.


What kind of people usually join Wildhartt expeditions ?

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.

What does the price of a Wildhartt adventure include?

At Wildhartt, transparency is essential. The price of your expedition reflects a clear breakdown of costs:

  • 30% for our guides, the mainstays of every adventure.
  • 35% for accommodation and meals, essential for your comfort.
  • 10% for equipment and transport, to guarantee safety and fluidity.
  • 25% for organisation and logistics, from first contact to the end of the expedition.
  • 1% for the rewilding of Europe, a concrete commitment to give back to nature what it gives us.

Our priority: to offer you a quality experience, with complete clarity.
