Wildlife watching

We meet at 2pm at the Hostel Quartier Libre gîte, nestling on the edge of the Ambel plateau. Meet Romain, a naturalist guide and wildlife enthusiast. After a briefing on the trip, he gives a presentation on the great fauna of the Vercors: deer, roe deer, chamois, but also wolves, whose discreet presence influences the ecosystems.
In the late afternoon, our first outing is to the Ambel plateau, which has been classified as a sensitive natural area. This unspoilt site is ideal for learning how to read the signs of wildlife presence (footprints, meal traces, areas of passage). Return to the gîte for a convivial dinner based on local produce.
After breakfast, you'll set off on a two-day hike, spending the night in a Mountain hut. The walk takes you through forests, clearings and high altitude grasslands, punctuated by tracking workshops: recognising footprints, analysing clues left by animals, sharpening your eyes.
Picnic lunch overlooking the mountains, then continue along open paths offering sweeping views of the high plateaux. Arrive at the Mountain hut in the late afternoon, settle in and prepare a meal together.
As night falls, a special outing to listen for wolf calls and experience the unique atmosphere of the Vercors.

EnglishThe excursions I lead with Wildhartt are all about sharing the rich, untamed nature of the Vercors through a local, nature-first approach. My background in naturalist studies has helped deepen my understanding of the animal world, knowledge I now pass on to others, to help raise awareness and inspire a deeper connection with the wild.
Take the TGV to Valence station. From there, we can organise a shuttle bus with your guide.

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.
