National Take a Hike Day Trek: Challenge, Connection & the Outdoors

Join the Camping Noire community for our empowering Monthly Goddess Hikes – a chance for women to connect, celebrate one another, and revel in the beauty of the outdoors. This special National Take a Hike Day Trek is dedicated to hitting the trails, celebrating our physical strength, and building confidence in nature.

These hikes offer a supportive and invigorating space to challenge ourselves physically and mentally while exploring diverse trails. Expect uplifting sisterly support, inspiring conversations, and a refreshing escape into nature's embrace. Whether you're a seasoned hiker or looking to build your confidence on the trail, all are welcome to join our tribe of adventurous goddesses!
