Trip Details

Join us for an overnight women's backpacking retreat to Point Reyes National Seashore! We’ll have spectacular views of the shoreline and ocean side lakes and set up camp in an open meadow overlooking the Pacific. 

This trip is ideal for women who are new to backpacking or have backpacked before and want the ease of a trip where someone else takes care of the logistics and permits! We handle the details, so you can simply show up, enjoy, and make new outdoorsy friends. And if you're interested in learning about leave no trace or back country skills, there will be plenty of opportunities for this too!
