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.

Craving wide open air at the height of summer? Our guided trips in August carry you from Alpine bivouacs in the Écrins to turquoise coves under sail. Tackle your first 4000 on the Mont Rose or the Breithorn, drift down the Dordogne by canoe with nights on the shore, learn to sail in Brittany, Corsica or the Balearics, paddle a week by sea kayak through the Stockholm archipelago, and set off on big crossings in Scotland or Lapland. We round it out with gravel and bikepacking escapes for a fast dose of freedom.

You travel in small groups with certified guides, nights in simple welcoming places, from refuges and gites to cabins and boats. Technical gear is often available to rent and many meeting points are easy to reach by train. In August we add plenty of dates over 2 to 10 days so you can match your window. Browse this August selection and book ahead to catch the long light and the finest European panoramas the season has to offer.

What our travellers say

Real reviews from people who joined our guided expeditions.

J’ai passé 3 jours exceptionnels, dans un cadre absolument magnifique. L’organisation était au rendez-vous et l’ambiance du groupe a largement contribué à rendre cette expérience inoubliable : une cordée de folie, pleine de bonne humeur et d’entraide. Un immense merci à notre guide Pierre, au top du début à la fin : bienveillant, rassurant et passionné. Il a su nous transmettre son amour de la montagne, partager ses connaissances et nous faire vivre une aventure humaine aussi forte que les paysages étaient beaux. Je repars avec des souvenirs incroyables et une seule envie : repartir pour une nouvelle aventure ! 🏔️✨
Geweldig avontuur. Goed georganiseerd met een topgids! Aanrader.
Une aventure tout simplement extraordinaire ! Des paysages à couper le souffle, des refuges magnifiques, des hôtes adorables, un groupe en parfaite harmonie… et surtout, un guide exceptionnel ! Pierre a su nous transmettre avec passion et énergie son amour de la montagne et rendre cette aventure encore plus belle. Gentil, pédagogue, d’une bienveillance rare et toujours attentif à chacun, il a su nous accompagner avec beaucoup de cœur et de professionnalisme 🙏 Un immense merci pour ces souvenirs qui resteront à jamais gravés dans nos mémoires ♥️
Stage trail de 2 jours absolument parfait, avec un guide attentif à chacun.e en continu, très pro et très drôle. L'ambiance du groupe était très chouette et s'est créée naturellement. Le refuge du Sotré est très confortable, avec une vue exceptionnelle, et de bons petits déjeuners et repas.
Très belle expérience pour mon fils de 16 ans auprès d'autres grimpeurs débutants et bienveillants. Initiation « familiale » à l’escalade vu le nombre limité de participants. Chouette équipe d’ailleurs ce jour. 🙂 Alban est un moniteur très professionnel, passionné et sympathique. Pas de souci sur le plan de la sécurité. La journée s'est passée agréablement et malheureusement trop vite. 😉😊
Super chouette expérience !
La très bonne préparation par Wildhartt et la qualité du guide qui nous a accompagné ont fait de ce tour des Dents du Midi une expérience réussie pour tout notre groupe: 4 jours de partage et de découverte dans un cadre montagneux splendide. Je vous le recommande vivement !
Très bien ! Un rêve qui se réalise !
Chouette journée d initiation à l escalade. Petit groupe fort sympathique avec un guide à l écoute , expérimenté et également sympa . Merci pour cette journée.
Super expérience, notre guide Isidore était vraiment au top avec toujours de super conseils .
Des paysages sublimes et variés, un chouette groupe et un excellent encadrement par Aurélien: tout était au top pour ce tour des Dents du Midi que je conseille vivement. Aurélien a proposé des variantes adaptées à l'évolution du groupe et aux conditions météo (évitant ainsi les averses). Nous avons reçu beaucoup de conseils techniques très utile pour progresser, et des explications instructives sur la géologie, la végétation, la faune, le milieu alpin. Marmottes, chamois et bouquetins étaient bien présents. Très bonne ambiance tout au long du séjour ;-).
Excellente organisation, nous nous sommes laissés porter pendant toute la durée du treck. Une fabuleuse expérience, gérée a la perfection par une guide, Laura, qui a su faire de notre 1ere expérience un souvenir inoubliable
