Introducing a brand new event in the Lake District this summer: Strong Women Adventure Trek

Join a hundred women as you escape the city for a day of new activities and brilliant challenges.


The Strong Women Trek has long been a staple in the Stylist calendar, but this year we’re thrilled to introduce an additional challenge: the Strong Women Adventure Trek!

This summer, in partnership with Intrepid Travel, we’re heading north to the beautiful Lake District for our brand new Strong Women Adventure Trek on Saturday 5 July

The Strong Women Adventure Trek is an exciting 10km route along the shores of Lake Windermere. Join 100 like-minded women as you set off in groups of 10 to experience a day of canoeing, rock climbing, abseiling and trekking in the ultimate outdoor challenge. The Strong Women Adventure Trek will finish in the event village, where you can collect your goody bag, connect with your teammates and celebrate your accomplishments.

This is your chance to tackle the elements and achieve the perfect mini-milestone that will leave you motivated for your next adventure. It’s also a great opportunity to make a difference: £5 from each ticket sale will go to our charity partner, The Intrepid Foundation.

  • Trek route app access
  • Protein-packed pick-me-ups

The event starts and finishes at YMCA Lakeside, which is a 25-minute drive from the M6 and is surrounded by woodland on the shores of Lake Windermere. 

Allocated parking at YMCA Lakeside will be provided on a first-come-first-served basis, though an additional overflow car park is located nearby. Alternatively, if you are travelling by train, then Oxenholme or Kendal Station are both a 30-minute drive to YMCA Lakeside. 

Sponsors

We’re excited to be working with Intrepid Travel, a B Corp company that has been creating positive change through the joy of travel for 30 years, as our official Strong Women Trek 2025 partner.

Intrepid Travel delivers small group tours led by local leaders, making them an ideal partner for our Strong Women Treks as we escape the city and come together to enjoy the best of the British countryside.

Charity

£5 from each ticket sale will be donated to The Intrepid Foundation, our official charity partner.

The Intrepid Foundation helps to give travellers more opportunities to give back in the places they visit. With impact partners in over 35 countries, travellers can donate to local organisations to create a global impact. If you feel inspired to do so, you can choose to complete this Trek for The Intrepid Foundation and raise even more money for the cause.
