Our Mission

A community VENTURE TO SUPPORT AND INSPIRE WOMEN IN THEIR alpine PURSUITS.

We aim to support growth through adventure - building skills and confidence outside and within!

Our inclusive, accessible club is built so that we can all support each other. We want to make Alpine experiences available to more women all over the world.

There is no membership fee, we are simply a community of women supporting women to increase their confidence and skills. Run by volunteers, we provide skills sessions and workshops from Guides, where the price is split between participants.

We’d like to build a network of qualified leaders, trainee leaders, outdoor enthusiasts and outdoor beginners to all help support each other to have fun adventures in the Alps and grow fearlessly together.

Specifically focused on skills for the Alpine environment, we host winter & summer meets and this website serves as an online platform for ‘How to’ videos, articles, interviews with amazing women.

We hope that by focusing on Alpine skills we will be adding to the ‘women’s focused’ adventure group world and complimenting all the other inspiring projects out there.
