Do you want to get out of the city and explore the Alps, build new skills to hike the mountain trails with confidence, learn more about the alpine flora and fauna and all in great company?
Our Women’s Hiking Group is a community of local and international women- who love hiking, spending time in the great outdoors and connecting with like-minded ladies through activity.
Our aims:
Friends that hike together, stay together
Every month we hike together - exploring a variety of trails from the Bavarian Alps to Austria– building up your fitness and strength hike-by-hike, as well as your hiking know-how with 4elements’ Founder and International Mountain Leader, Ceri Temple.
The icing on the cake (yes, there is often cake…) - two magical weekend alpine hut tours – one in September and one in February- where we celebrate together our achievements, friendships and the memories made along the way.

Our September hut tour takes us into the Northern Karwendel range. We start our hike just below the Sylvenstein dam. We head through the stunning Krottenbach valley and ascend a trail between waterfalls to a saddle with a small lake. Crossing into the Karwendel Nature Park, we continue the southern side of the ridge through the Delps bowl to the Tölzer Hütte at 1835m. Newly renovated and in an idyllic location, we watch the sun set over the impressive walls of the Karwendel. Sunday, we head up the iconic Schafreuter peak, with splendid views and panoramas in all directions. We then descend- either into the Rißtal or back to Fall, where we finish off the tour with a well-deserved coffee and cake.
