Wildlife-watching hikes: in the early hours of the morning or in the evening, we discreetly set off into the mountains to observe the wildlife as it takes over once the day's hikers have left. Ibex, chamois, marmots and birds of prey will all be there. Grab your binoculars!
> 05:00 MORNING MEETING or 16:30 END OF AFTERNOON MEETING
Depending on the outing, we leave at night in the early hours or in the evening, and set up at dawn or dusk. An hour and a half's walk will take us to our ideal observation spot. From here, we wait patiently for the wildlife to show its face!

🌿 For all nature lovers, beginners or experienced. No technical level is required: all you need is the ability to walk quietly in the mountains and a love of peaceful surroundings. This is an ideal outing for families, individuals or small groups.
🦌 Depending on the season and location: chamois, ibex, marmots, deer, roe deer, even birds of prey. Observation is done from a distance, using binoculars and spotting scopes, with the greatest respect for the environment.
🌄 These are the busiest times for wildlife. At dawn, the mountain awakens in silence; at dusk, it calms down and the animals come out discreetly. These times offer total immersion, with magical light and few human visitors.
🦊 Nature remains free and unpredictable. But with a good reading of the clues, a suitable timetable and accurate scouting, the chances are good. And even without a direct encounter, the atmosphere and the traces left behind always tell a story.
🕒 Approximately 5h. 1h30 max approach, then 2h30 on site to observe and snack at the same time. The return journey is made during the day or with a headlamp, depending on the season.
