Guided Women’s Hiking & Backpacking Trips in the Southwest


Four Season Guides

Connection. Camaraderie. Community. 

This is what you can expect to experience on an All-Women’s Adventure trip with Four Season Guides. Our women-specific trips are designed by women for women. Our experienced female guides put special care and attention into creating intentional space that feels inclusive and conducive to trying new things, like backpacking a bucket list adventure in the Grand Canyon or exploring a secret slot canyon in southern Utah. 


Four Season Guides All-Women’s Adventure trips prioritize cultivating sacred space where each member of the group feels heard, valued, and capable. We know that women orient to outdoor spaces differently than men. This is why our All-Women’s Adventure trips are guided exclusively by women. As a band of sisters, we travel through these epic landscapes together. 


The meals are healthy and plentiful. The pace is slow enough to enjoy the scenery while still getting a great workout. The vibe is encouraging and uplifting.


Whether you choose the rigors of a backpacking trek in awe-inspiring Kanab Creek Wilderness of Grand Canyon or the comforts of a lodge-based trip in otherworldly Death Valley National Park, expect to have fun and be challenged in a supportive and nourishing environment. Curious about camping? Try a beautiful basecamp hiking adventure in the stunning landscape of Canyonlands National Park. 


Big belly laughs. New friendships. Strength and empowerment. In addition to some of the most breathtaking views in some of the most sought-after destinations, this is what you can hope to find on any one of our women-specific outdoor adventures. Come and escape the business of life and find freedom traveling amidst the soulscapes of wild places and like-minded women. Take a risk. Choose YourSelf. 


We warmly welcome solo travelers and groups of women seeking to join an existing trip. Interested in creating a custom itinerary built to meet the needs of your group? Contact us today!
