Welcome to Outdoor Adventure Girls
Outdoor Adventure Girls is a growing community built to empower women to reconnect with nature, find adventure, and build lifelong friendships. Through local meetups, weekend getaways, and international trips, we create safe and inclusive spaces for women to feel confident outdoors.
Our mission is simple: to give women the chance to step outside their comfort zones, discover new places, and connect with like-minded adventurers, all while challenging the lack of female representation in the outdoor industry.
We’re deeply passionate about the positive impact the outdoors can have on mental health. Life can be overwhelming, and we believe every woman deserves the time to recharge, reset, and show up as her authentic self. Our trips offer that escape; a place to laugh, breathe, and truly feel free.
How it all began
Outdoor Adventure Girls was founded by Sophie after experiencing a life-changing event in her early twenties. Following a sexual assault, she spent years feeling isolated and afraid. But as she slowly reconnected with the outdoors, she discovered its healing power — and knew she wanted other women to feel that same sense of freedom and strength.
Sophie went on to work with the Ministry of Justice on the It Still Matters campaign, encouraging survivors of sexual violence to seek support, no matter how much time has passed.
Outdoor Adventure Girls became her way of showing women that they already have everything they need — confidence, courage, and community — to get outside and live fully.
Where we are now
Three years later, Outdoor Adventure Girls has grown to over 100,000 women nationwide, supported by 14 regional Facebook groups and a team of 20 incredible volunteer moderators.
We host monthly weekend trips across the UK — from Scotland to the Lake District, Snowdonia to the New Forest — packed with adventure activities like hiking, paddleboarding, kayaking, yoga, and wild swimming.
In 2023, we expanded to international adventures, taking women to Bali, France, Iceland, and Morocco — with so many more destinations planned for the years ahead.
Join us on the adventure
Outdoor Adventure Girls isn’t just about travel. It’s about connection, empowerment, and rewriting what adventure looks like for women everywhere. We’d love for you to be part of the journey.
Love Sophie and the OAG team
