What is Wild Juniper?

A female-owned business aiming to help more women experience the wild magic of the backcountry and develop a love for the outdoors.

Wild Juniper is a guide company that teaches women how to backpack, venture into the deeper outdoors, and connect with nature and themselves. We’ll teach you what gear to get (or you can just rent from us!), how to use all of your gear, how to stay safe on the trail, how to cook food and filter water, all of it. When you book a trip with us, we want you to know that if you show up with nothing but your boots and some basic clothes and toiletries, we’ve taken care of the rest. And we’ll take care of you!

Many women want to try backpacking but have a hesitancy to go with friends or partners before figuring things out, and unfortunately don’t feel safe going alone. We are the solution! If you’re interested in trying backpacking and want someone to show you the ropes in a supportive, safe atmosphere, book a trip with Wild Juniper. Or, if you’re a seasoned backpacker and have been trying to convince your newbie friends to go with you but they’re not ready to commit to buying all the gear, try a group booking with us. We even have special trips geared towards menstrual education and healing or yoga and meditation. Visit the shop to view our upcoming trips and book today, or reach out with any questions.
