Whether you’re an experienced backpacker or new to the game, you’re in luck! We’ve got you covered for your dream of a rugged, overnight backpacking trip. Join a group of adventurous and fearless women and by the time you return to the trailhead, they will be your closest friends. This is what happens when bold women explore together, regardless of whether it’s your first or umpteenth backpacking trip. Our trips are designed for anyone excited about adventure and hiking to a backcountry campsite.

• The hike in is 7km to our rustic campsite. This area is just stunning in the fall. This is a small group, it leaves time for hands-on help from your guide.

This event leaves lots of free time for quiet reflection, connection with others and rest.
