Why choose Wildhartt?

Certified expert guides

Every expedition is led by qualified, passionate guides trained for safety in the wild.

Small groups, authentic adventure

Human-sized groups for a genuine adventure, far from mass tourism.

Wild & preserved nature

We explore the most beautiful wild spaces while respecting ecosystems and local communities.

In April the mountains and the far North show two faces. Our adventure trips in April bring together the last snow and the lift of spring: ski touring, snowshoe outings and dog sledding in Swedish Lapland, along with big hikes and wildlife encounters across the French ranges.

On snow, aim for a first 4000 on Gran Paradiso, link Chamonix to Zermatt on the Haute Route, or tag the Mont Thabor on a three day raid. Learn step by step around Mont Blanc and at the Grand Saint Bernard, spend a night in an igloo with views of the Meije, or go splitboard touring around Argentière and the Albert Premier hut. Further north, pick April traverses in Norway’s Lyngen Alps, either by sailboat or from a cosy chalet, when conditions are at their best.

If you prefer dry trails, go mountain running in Chamonix, the Vercors, on Mont Ventoux or up the Grand Colombier. Hike the Vosges ridge, roam the Auvergne volcanoes, explore Luxembourg’s Mullerthal and the cliffs and lochs of the Isle of Skye. On calmer water, pair mountain bike and packraft on the Lesse, learn to sail in Zeeland, or paddle a quiet Belgian river in search of beavers. To slow down, track wolves in the Vercors or the Ecrins, or treat yourself to a yoga retreat in the Ardennes. Our adventure trips in April run from 1 to 8 days and are guided by local pros for every level.

What our travellers say

Real reviews from people who joined our guided expeditions.

Nous avons vécu 3 jours au top avec le guide Romain qui a tout mis en œuvre pour nous transmettre son amour du Vercors. Nous avons suivi la piste des loups en apprenant sans cesse sur la nature (faune,flore et paysages). Un grand merci à Romain.
Notre guide,,Violette, au top, dans son approche, la technique et la convivialité . Patrick C.
Journée au top
On a passé un excellent week-end en Zélande avec Tom notre skipper! Apprentissage de la voile sans pression et dans la bonne humeur :) À refaire!
Randonnée de 3 jours dans les Vosges, avec nuit étoilée. Superbe expérience grâce à notre guide, Joseph, sa soif de connaissances, sa bonne humeur , son accordéon et son aptitude à s'adapter au groupe. Mille mercis à lui
Très belle expérience avec un super guide.
Le professionnalisme du guide m'a épaté. Un passionné. Merci à lui pour son partage. L'hôtel Quartier Libre est parfait. Chambres, nourriture, acceuil.
Descente de la Dyle tranquillement en canoë , observation de la nature comme des libellules, des grands et majestueux arbres et furtivement un castor.
Superbe aventure :)
Séjour ds le Vercors vraiment extra. Très belle nature ainsi que la météo. Un très grand merci au guide Romain à la fois très pro et cool, une très chouette rencontré.
Le castor n’a désormais plus de secret 🦫💚 La région est magnifique et vaut vraiment le détour. La promenade est, totalement accessible à tous! Notre guide, Mathias connaissait son sujet est très à l’écoute. Les horaires en pack-kraft étaient parfaits: Rivière peut fréquenter à ce moment-là et propice à l’observation du castor que nous avons pu observer en train de manger. Il y avait aussi beaucoup d’oiseaux à observer. Le calme et le chant des oiseaux régnaient 😌 Bref, une jolie petite initiation à la navigation que je recommande vivement!
J'ai beaucoup apprécié que cette rando se fasse en petit groupe, nous étions 6, pour moi c'est parfait. Le niveau proposé correspond tout à fait à ce que je m'attendais. Pour ma première vraie rando, Bruno notre guide, a su suffisamment me conseiller et soutenir le groupe surtout le 2ème jour où nous avons rencontré un bel orage dans les hauteurs des Vosges. Ce fut une belle expérience que je suis prête à poursuivre.
