Women in the Wild - Bringing Women Outside!
Calling all adventurous women ready to explore the Grand Canyon for the first time! Discover the awe-inspiring beauty of the Grand Canyon alongside a supportive group of fellow female adventurers. Whether you're a novice hiker or a seasoned trailblazer, our expedition is tailored to ensure a safe and empowering experience for everyone.
No hiking experience necessary - just a spirit of adventure. We've got your back every step of the way. While trekking through the Canyon, we will share empowering stories, learn art, and practice stress management techniques. We will learn about the local flora and fauna of the canyon and spend time in meditation and reflection. This day trip will include about 4 miles of hiking and includes all art supplies.
Our group size will be intentionally small, so don’t wait to step out of your comfort zone and into the extraordinary!
