From the natural lookout point at Hesten, contemplate the vertiginous silhouette of Segla, a 640 m cliff plunging into the fjord.
Hunt for the Northern Lights from your lodge on the edge of the fjord, far from any light pollution.

Frequently asked questions

What about meals on site?

All meals are prepared together in a friendly, collective approach, with everyone pitching in. When you arrive, your guide will already have done most of the shopping for the week. It will be possible to do additional shopping for fresh produce in local shops.

Will we get to see the Northern Lights?

The best time to see the Northern Lights in Senja, Norway, is from the end of September to the end of March. During these months, the nights are long and dark enough for the Northern Lights to be visible, and there is a greater chance of clear skies. The winter months, from December to March, are particularly favourable.

Will we have to carry a rucksack on our daily walks?

As we'll be sleeping in the same place every night, you'll simply need to bring a small rucksack to carry everything you'll need for the day's hike (water bottle, energy bars, picnic, etc.).

How comfortable is the accommodation?

You will sleep the first and last nights in a hotel in Tromso. The other 5 nights, you will sleep in a typical Norwegian chalet / lodge with 5 bedrooms: 3 bedrooms with 2 single beds that can be joined together, 1 bedroom with 1 single bed and 1 bedroom with a bunk bed). There are also 2 bathrooms, a spacious living room with TV and internet and a fully equipped kitchen. You'll also have a superb location to enjoy thanks to the spacious terrace.

What will be the average journey time to reach the trailheads?

On average, we will drive between 25 minutes and 1 hour maximum to reach the start of the hikes.

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.
