She Went Wild intends to “inspire, educate and connect women to live adventurously in the outdoors” and does this through offering training and trips across many outdoor activities. They say “for too long, female adventurers have been underrepresented in the outdoors industry. She Went Wild journey started in an effort to overcome the barriers faced by women who want to spend more time out and about”.
“Our active community of women who love fresh air and adventure started in 2016. Every day, we help women build up the confidence they need to start their own adventures and showcase those in the world who already do so. We share practical information and beautiful content to inspire them and hold events and workshops to educate and empower them to say yes to an adventurous lifestyle”.
Given it is winter, they are offering some great trips, including this one to Mount Kosciuszko.

There’s no shortage of adventurous females in the Victorian bushwalking clubs that I’m very familiar with! They both currently have female presidents and they both have females very well represented in all of the club trips, including the toughest long- distance walking, x/c skiing and snow-camping trips. Some trips have been 90% female and this situation has been the norm for many years. Long may it continue! And good luck to any efforts that further encourage females to get out there.
