Meet the Team
So many women I’ve met over the past three years running the Gloucestershire Women’s Adventure group tell me about their adventure dreams. They have the glow of excitement in their eyes as they tell me about wanting to hike a famous trail or cycle an exciting new route. And then they add the BUT… and most often that BUT is tied to confidence and fitness, worries about keeping up with the group, and concerns about falling behind.
Sound familiar?
We want more women to have these epic adventures, so we’ve designed our trips to take the needs of busy women into account – our trips have a lower daily mileage, and a kinder pace to make our expeditions achievable. If you can walk eight to ten miles (or cycle 20 miles) slowly over a day, then we believe that you can manage most of our trips.
Our adventures are women-only, body-positive, non-judgemental and supportive environments. Our staff are skilled at building a sense of community where everybody is valued and supported to reach their potential.
