A place has just opened on our Cambodia Active Adventure, led by AW’s Marie in the country she grew up in🧡

What last year’s adventurers had to say:
“I loved the great group of women and the variety of activities. We hiked, cooked, kayaked, met elephants, laughed, swam and ate. Marie’s knowledge of her homeland made this a memorable experience.” - Michelle

You’ll explore the impressive temples, of course. However, it’s often the days either side that visitors remember most fondly.

Phnom Kulen means Lychee Mountain, and we’ll be hiking it through rainforest to a swimmable waterfall, arriving on a weekend, when Cambodian families are spread around the pools with picnics.

Mondulkiri is one corner of Cambodia where you might need a jumper. We spend a day in the forest with the retired elephants of the Elephant Valley Project. Most worked in logging or carried tourists before this. We’ll be respecting their freedom and simply observing them in the forest.

On the Mekong at Kratie we’ll take to the water, kayaking through flooded forest looking for the shy but curious Irrawaddy dolphins.

Just one place left for our guaranteed departure in January 👇 https://na2.hubs.ly/H08x-gM0

Day seven in Greece starts with coffee on the Askifou Plateau, high in the White Mountains, where the ideal accompaniment is sfakiani pita - a thin cheese pie with mountain honey poured over it.

Then we reach the Aradena Gorge and start our 7km descent, on a stone mule track older than the iron bridge we set off from. The gorge walls hold the shade for most of the morning. Oleander flowers should colour the riverbed light pink in late May, griffon vultures nest in the cliffs above, and there’ll likely be goats bleating somewhere overhead on the way down.

The gorge opens onto Marmara, a pebble cove of soft marbled rock and swim-through caves, with water at a brisk but refreshing 19 degrees.

There’s time for a swim and a rest at the small taverna before we jump on a private boat heading west. No road runs along this coast, so it’s mostly undeveloped shoreline with the occasional village tucked into a cove.

We finish in Palaiochora, on a strip of land that juts out into the water - our base for the next two nights.

Join us for ten days in Greece, departing Tuesday 18 May 2027 👇https://na2.hubs.ly/H08x2Tq0

Join AW’s Tara again in 2027 for five days in the Blue Mountains, with just a day pack to carry and a comfortable hotel to come back to each evening.

Three of those days we’ll be hiking. The Grand Canyon Track leads us from sandstone cliffs down into lush fern forest. The Grand Clifftop Walk covers longer distances over two days, with waterfalls and expansive views over the valley.

Days on the trail are balanced with more reflective moments: an afternoon with an Indigenous guide, a night stargazing at Wentworth Falls and Devonshire tea at Everglades House.

Marie’s back on the water with us on Saturday 28 November for our QLD send-off - a private catamaran chartered for the day, morning tea and lunch on board. Time on deck, time in the water, and the rest of the afternoon to catch up. Weather permitting we’ll drop by Peel Island and Horseshoe Bay.

It’s our last QLD event of the year 🧡 It’s confirmed to go ahead and there are a few places left, so book yours here: https://na2.hubs.ly/H08syzT0

Hi Adventurers 👋 Marie here. I’m flying into Perth in early December for our end-of-year get-together, with WA Tour Leaders Effi, Anna, Lyn and Jazzy there too 🧡

We’re gathering at Holey Moley in Northbridge this year for some mini golf of the crazy variety.

There’ll be a drink on arrival, pizza and fries once the last putt drops, and a lucky draw for some new AW merch. Christmas livery welcome, putting skills entirely optional.

It’s our last event for 2026, so it’s a chance to share a laugh with the women you’ve walked and paddled with this year, and meet a few you haven’t.

We’re confirming numbers soon, please book your spot here:

Hey Adventurers - Explore the bush tracks and quiet coves of Sydney Harbour you'd never find alone.

Over four guided hikes, we’ll uncover tucked-away corners of the city that are surprisingly serene, alongside a few famous sights from completely new angles.

Unpack just once at our comfortable hotel and only carry a day pack. Your AW Leader sets a relaxed pace while you enjoy the adventure with a small and welcoming group of women.

The latest from our weekend walk with AW’s Marie 🍃

“A lovely, chilled morning walk with our AW women! So great to see so many families, walkers and runners enjoying the park, along with the fresh weekend markets.

We wandered around New Farm Park, admiring the colourful blossoms, including purple jacarandas, golden trumpet trees and roses.

After a riverside walk, we caught the ferry back and picked up some sweet treats to enjoy together, with a chat and live music by the markets.

A relaxing morning filled with flowers, friendship and smiles!”

Day one you're running on the novelty of exploring somewhere new. Day two your legs have an opinion about it, but you've hit your stride by morning tea.

Exploring a new place multiple days in a row is something you can build up to. It also helps to pick a trip that matches the activity level you actually want.

That's what our latest blog article is all about 👇

Paddles and boots at the ready, Adventurers 🥾 The final two tours to join our 2027 lineup are now open!

In August, our redesigned Cassowary Coast kayaking adventure has you exploring the Great Barrier Reef each day from a comfy island basecamp on Dunk Island.

This tour follows a flexible itinerary based on the group and weather conditions. One day might be a hike up Mt Kootaloo, the next a paddle through crystal clear water.

No kayaking experience needed, you'll have a paddle buddy, a local kayak guide, an AW Tour Leader, a small group of supportive women to share the adventure: https://na2.hubs.ly/H08gy8_0

In November, Snowy Mountains Pack-Free Hiking returns for spring 2027. Our two earlier trips have sold out, so it's a firm favourite!

You'll explore Kosciuszko National Park and only need to carry a day pack. The trip also includes a bucket-list hike to the summit of Mt Kosciuszko, the roof of Australia!

Big days of adventure can be followed by some well-earned downtime. In-house chefs will take care of meals and you can kick-back for a chat and a laugh with a fun group of welcoming women:
