About us
Hike & Pictures is a community for humans and their furry companions who love nature, photography, and meaningful connections. 🌿📸🐾
We organize hikes & city walks across the Netherlands while combining this with photography. Whether you're a seasoned photographer, just love snapping pictures with your phone or just join for a little exercise/exploring, you're welcome here.
Besides that, we also organize social events where you can connect with our community over a drink or lunch/food. This community stands for meeting new people in different ways and build long lasting connections.
This community is a safe place! We respect all genders, sexualities, races and nationalities.
Come for the hikes, stay for the community. Let’s wander, create, and connect, one beautiful trail at a time.
