Her Adventure Hike for Women--Violet Crown Trail
Details
This hike is open and welcoming to newcomers.
About the hike:
We'll walk a 5 mile out-and-back (meaning we'll walk one way, turn around and head back the way we came) section of the Violet Crown trail. We'll start at Zilker Park and head South. The hike is fairly flat, a few small ups and downs. The trail is a mix of crushed gravel, dirt and rocks. It's unpaved the entire way.
Parking:
Metered parking available nearby and around the Zilker Park/Barton Springs area. Please pay attention to meter times and any posted signs.
RSVPs:
Please be sure to update your RSVP if your plans change. We have a large group and want to accommodate folks who really want to join us. If you can't make it, just RSVP no so we can give your spot to someone else.
About Her Adventure:
We are Bobbie and Katy--two friends who have enjoyed spending time hiking and backpacking. We noticed that when we are in the backcountry, we don't see a whole lot of other women--probably due to a lot of factors (historical lack of representation, marketing, fear drilled into us by friends/family that the woods aren't safe, bro culture, etc). So we started Her Adventure with the goal of helping folks see themselves as hikers, adventurers, and strong ass humans who can haul their bodies up and over mountains. We're here to help cultivate the journey and sense of community.
Questions?
If you have any questions please feel free to message Bobbie or Katy.
