DC Metro Area LGBTQ+Outdoors Club Since 1979
who we are
Adventuring is an outdoors club for the LGBTQ+ community in the Washington, DC Metro area. We’re all about enjoying the outdoors and being physically active.
Our LGBTQ+ volunteers lead hikes year-round. Camping, backpacking, and canoeing are examples of some of the other things we do when we have volunteers to lead them and, we love beginners, so don’t worry about any lack of experience.
Don’t have a car? Not to worry – our trip leaders coordinate carpools from Metro stations.
