This camp is designed for women who are physically and emotionally capable of riding for a full day. While we welcome various skill levels, participants should have basic trail riding experience and the proper equipment. The camps’s pace will accommodate different riders, but please ensure you’re prepared for the physical demands of the day for your own safety and enjoyment. A detailed email with meeting location, what to bring, and other event details will be sent a week before the event. Lunch will be provided, but participants should bring their own water, snacks, a well-tuned bike, and appropriate clothing and gear. Have questions? Reach out to Effie at effie@maineoutdoorkids.com.
