Wilderness Backpacking Trips for Women

Wilderness backpacking trips are the best way to explore remote areas, to learn just how little you really need, to let your rhythms attune to the natural world. On backpacking trips the pressures of every day life  recede, simplicity replaces busyness, and (re)gaining perspective on what is truly important in life slowly occurs. Backpacking can be a lifelong sport and after an initial investment in clothing and equipment, is inexpensive. On our backpacking trips you learn what you need to have a safe and fun trip. And while we will always welcome your return, we want you to become as self-sufficient as you are interested in being.

Backpacking the Appalachian Trail: An Introduction to Lightweight Backpacking

Top of Page

On this wilderness backpacking trip we travel along one of the Appalachian Trail's most interesting sections, from Dicky Gap to Elk Garden, at the height of the rhododendron and azaleas in bloom. This is a perfect backpacking trip for beginners: our moderate mileage leaves time for you to learn everything you need to know to pursue backpacking on your own. Or if you haven't been backpacking for awhile, join us to learn about the lightweight revolution. Our lightweight approach should keep your pack under 30 pounds.  $1160  Rating: 1  2  [3]  4  5
