Our Story

The idea of finding solace and strength in the great outdoors didn’t come to me until my thirties. It was a revelation that completely transformed my life. What started as a personal quest for tranquility on the trails soon evolved into something far greater than I ever imagined.

In May 2017, fueled by a newfound passion and a desire to connect with other women who shared this love for adventure, I created an Instagram challenge. My vision was simple: to build a community where women could come together, support one another, and celebrate the beauty and healing power of nature.

This vision grew into Hikerbabes, a global movement that has now united over 165,000 members across 205 chapters worldwide. What began as a modest challenge has become a thriving network, thanks to the dedication of over 300 incredible ambassadors who believe in our mission.

Each day, I am inspired by the way this community embraces the spirit of adventure and the strength that comes from shared experiences. Hikerbabes is more than just a hiking group; it’s a testament to the power of women supporting women and the transformative impact of the great outdoors.

If you’ve ever felt a longing for connection or a curiosity about hiking, I warmly invite you to join us. Together, let’s embark on new adventures, inspire one another, and find strength in the beauty of nature. With each step we take, we build a legacy of empowerment and friendship, one hike at a time.
