Your reviews

The opinions of our participants who have placed their trust in us

Frequently asked questions

Can I charge my phone or other devices in the accommodation?

No electricity at the Agnel refuge.

What essential equipment should I bring?

Once you've signed up, you'll receive a full list of equipment within a few weeks. You'll also have the opportunity to talk to the guide well before departure to ask any questions you may have and have plenty of time to prepare.

How comfortable is the accommodation?

The level of comfort varies according to the accommodation throughout the trip. The first night is spent in a hostel, in a shared room. Subsequent nights are spent in dormitories in mountain huts.

What methods of payment are accepted on site?

When you're there, it's best to carry cash. Credit cards are rarely accepted in refuges, and payments are almost always made in cash. If you need to buy water, drinks or small extras, make sure you have some euros in cash before you leave. Ideally, you should withdraw some cash in town before arriving in the mountains if you want to buy those little extras. However, everything else is taken care of for you!

What does the price of a Wildhartt adventure include?

At Wildhartt, we attach particular importance to price transparency for our shipments. Our approach is based on a clear breakdown of costs, aimed at providing a better understanding of the elements included in the total amount. Here's how we allocate the percentages:

  • 30% for our guides: We believe that our experienced guides play a crucial role in the success of each activity. That's why we make sure we allocate a significant proportion to pay for their expertise and supervision.
  • 35% for accommodation and food: We consider comfortable accommodation and quality food to be essential elements of an enriching experience.
  • 10% for equipment and transport: The safety and comfort of our participants is paramount. With this part of the total amount, we can guarantee that the equipment required is in excellent condition and adequate for each activity. Transport costs also come into play when they are essential during an expedition.
  • 25% for expedition participation and running costs: These costs cover the logistical, administrative and organisational aspects of the expedition, as well as the overall management of the experience, from start to finish.

Our aim is to provide you with a trustworthy, high-quality experience, while being transparent about how the final cost of your shipment is shared. If you have any further questions about our prices, please contact us here.
