Meet Trail Mommas

Trail Mommas is a vibrant community dedicated to inspiring families to embrace the wonders of nature. Our mission is to foster a love for the outdoors by encouraging families to embark on adventures that strengthen bonds and build resilience. We believe that every trail leads to new discoveries, and every adventure is an opportunity to grow closer as a family.

The Power of Nature

Why Fresh Air Matters

Breathing in fresh air and spending time in nature has profound benefits for both the body and mind. For families, these experiences create a unique space for bonding, learning, and growing together.

Shared outdoor experiences not only enhance physical health but also foster emotional connections. By exploring the world around us, families can build lasting memories and instill a sense of adventure and curiosity in children.

What Our Families Say

“Joining Trail Mommas was one of the best decisions I made for my family.  We discovered educational adventures, new interests/hobbies, explored what was right in our “backyard” I never knew was there!  We’ve all made incredible memories and friendships to last a lifetime.”

I absolutely love what Katie has created with Trail Mommas. She brings so much knowledge and experience when it comes to hiking with little ones, and she’s built an amazing community of women who are all about getting outside. I really enjoy hiking with other like-minded women, and I appreciate that some of the hikes are open to dads, too.

“I’ve enjoyed meeting up with the Trail Mommas group! It’s been great to meet with other moms and families who are just trying to spend some time outside with their kids. My kiddos always look forward to meeting up with other kids to romp around and explore nature with. I’m also learning about all these cool new places to check out nearby from the group!
