We'll meet at 10am at the Col de Pontis to begin this trip around Lake Serre-Ponçon. After meeting your guide and briefing you on the programme, we'll set off for the summit of Morgonnet, which is accessible but offers an exceptional panorama.
The climb takes you through forests and clearings, with plenty of breaks to observe nature and get used to the pace. When you reach the summit, you'll enjoy uninterrupted views of Lake Serre-Ponçon and the surrounding mountains, from the Écrins massif to the Ubaye crests.
The descent is a leisurely one back to the gîte. In the evening, a convivial meal will allow you to get to know each other and prepare for the rest of your stay.
Note: Don't forget to pack a picnic lunch for this first day!
Today you'll be combining two activities: hiking and packraft. We start with a climb up to the Sardane viewpoint, which offers a wide view of the Serre-Ponçon lake and its wild creeks.
After a break, we descend to the water's edge. There's a change of pace: you inflate your packraft and paddle back to the starting point on the lake. It's an original way to see the landscape from a different angle.
At the end of the afternoon, it's back to the gîte for dinner.
This day is dedicated to rest or optional activities. You can choose to relax at the gîte, or take advantage of local activities such as skiing or paragliding (optional).
We set off from the former Laverq abbey, a place steeped in history. We gradually climb up the valley, following the course of a mountain stream. The atmosphere soon becomes wild, with larch forests, waterfalls and rock faces.
The walk is sustained but regular, and the immersion in this unspoilt setting is total. This day brings out the natural, authentic side of the mountains.
At the end of the afternoon, we return to the comfort of the gîte for a quiet evening.
To round off the tour, we take the Montclar chairlifts to quickly gain altitude and reach the Pic de Savernes. The climb alternates between forested passages and open ridges, with an ever-widening view of the Serre-Ponçon lake, guided by the peaks of the Écrins and Ubaye.
From the summit of the Pic de Savernes, we enjoy one last panoramic view, a natural balcony overlooking the entire valley. We share a final picnic at altitude before a leisurely descent.
This outing brings the trip to a close with some wonderful memories.

You don’t need to be a top athlete or mountain 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.
