Discover the Wildhorn 3250m safely with our guided tours, try your hand at mountaineering
Every Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 21 June to 20 October, and on other dates on request, you can climb the Wildhorn, the emblematic summit of the region. Climb independently to the Cabane des Audannes where you will spend the night. Your guide, Gérald Mathys, will join you there for the second day when things get serious! After an ascent in an almost lunar atmosphere, you will put on your harness and crampons to climb up the glacier to the highest point at 3'250m.
You don't need to be an experienced mountaineer to attempt this climb. If you are a good walker, well guided, you will not have any major difficulty. However, it takes a good 5 hours to reach the summit and return to the hut.
This experience costs CHF 265 per person. A minimum of 4 people is required. The price includes half board (dinner, overnight stay and breakfast) and the mountain guide's fee. Reservations must be made by 5pm on the Wednesday before the weekend of the climb.
