Frequently asked questions

What meals are included?

All meals are provided from dinner on the first day to breakfast on the fifth day. Breakfast and dinner are served in the Mountain huts or inns, generally based on local produce and adapted to your energy requirements. Picnics for lunch are taken to the Mountain huts each morning.

What equipment should you take with you on the Teeth of Midi tour?

A detailed list will be sent after registration. Here is an overview of the recommended equipment: Backpack: 40-50 litres Hiking shoes: suitable and already broken in Clothing: suitable for mountain conditions (mackintosh, fleece, hat, gloves) Sun protection: cream, sunglasses, cap Hiking poles: useful for comfort and balance Water bottle or bag: minimum capacity of 1.5 litres Fitted sheet: for nights in refuge

How big is the group?

The number of participants is limited to 6 to ensure a friendly, personalised experience.

Are there any dizzying passages?

Yes, there are some moderately vertiginous sections, particularly at the Pas d'Encel and on certain ridges. These sections may impress some people who are sensitive to heights, but they remain accessible to hikers used to mountain trails. It is important to be comfortable on varied terrain and not suffer from severe vertigo to fully enjoy the expedition. The guide will be present to accompany and advise each participant on these passages to ensure a safe crossing.

Can I arrive the day before or extend my stay?

Yes, it is possible to arrive earlier or extend your stay after the expedition. To make things easier for you, we offer optional extra nights when you book. If you wish to organise your stay outside these options, we recommend that you contact the local accommodation providers or the Champéry tourist office directly for the best options for accommodation and additional activities.

What are the options for special diets?

The accommodation offers meals suitable for vegetarians and can, as far as possible, cater for certain dietary restrictions (gluten-free, lactose-free). It is essential to indicate any dietary restrictions at the time of registration, or when requested by the Wildhartt team via the expedition's Whatsapp group, so that the appropriate arrangements can be made.

How comfortable is the accommodation?

The accommodation on this tour is mountain refuges and inns, offering a warm, rustic atmosphere. Situated in the heart of nature, they offer total immersion in breathtaking scenery, with breathtaking views of the Dents du Midi, the Alpine valleys and sometimes even spectacular sunrises or sunsets. The dormitories are equipped with duvets or blankets, but it is necessary to bring a sheet for reasons of hygiene. Facilities include toilets, and hot showers are available in some huts (sometimes at an extra cost). The communal areas are designed to offer a moment of relaxation and sharing with other hikers. This is the perfect opportunity to exchange experiences, relax after a day's walking and enjoy meals prepared with local produce.

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.
