Expect Something DifferentThe Women's Wilderness Institute offers high quality outdoor adventures and backcountry trips for women and teen girls in the Rocky Mountains and southwestern deserts and rivers. With more than 50 courses per year for women of all ages and fitness levels, we probably have an adventure for you. Whether you want a rejuvenating backpacking or river trip, the technical challenge and support of a women's only rock climbing or mountain biking course, the stillness of backcountry yoga, or the creative inspiration of wilderness writing or outdoor photography, you'll find it here!

Strong Girls. Strong Women. Better World.Women's Wilderness courses are specifically designed for women and girls, which makes us different than other adventure travel trips. Our mission runs beyond teaching skills needed for your own outdoor adventures; we also love the wilderness as a way to bring out the voices, courage, confidence and leadership qualities within each girl and woman. Our exceptional all-female field staff will listen to your objectives and expectations, making you an active participant in the flow and direction of your course. At Women's Wilderness, we celebrate the unique strengths and learning styles of women and are dedicated to building strong girls and women with the skills to make our world a better place.
