Learn the fundamentals of hiking in just 100 minutes.
Everything you need to know to start your independent hiking journey — the 5 stages of hiking and the 16 essential skills to start and grow as a skilled independent hiker.
This workshop is for you if…
You’re very new to hiking
Held back by fears and limiting beliefs — that the outdoors is dangerous, or needs exceptional fitness, expensive gear or lots of money. Maybe a bad experience left you thinking hiking isn’t for you, but you still wish you could enjoy the outdoors.
You want to hike more
You have budget constraints and want to keep hiking without spending thousands on every trip — and to reduce your dependency on guides and groups and become more self-sufficient.
You’re looking to upskill
You want to attempt longer multi-day hikes, explore offbeat trails or hike solo without compromising safety — and identify the missing pieces in your skillset.
16 essential hiking skills
I’ve distilled 8 years and 11,600 km of hiking experience, along with lessons from countless mistakes, into this focused 100-minute workshop.
Outdoor skills can only truly be mastered through practice — but getting started is overwhelming when you don’t know where to begin. This workshop gives you a clear roadmap to accelerate that journey.
