The Los Angeles chapter is forming

Nobody has joined yet, so you could be first. The first meet-up is set once 10 founding members and a host sign up.

No host yet. Hosts plan the meet-ups and greet new members.

Get out of the city on foot. Every hike is graded so you know what to expect, and each group has a leader who knows the route. Start with easy morning walks and work up to multi-day trails.

What Los Angeles members do

  • Graded Saturday and Sunday day hikes
  • Sunrise and full-moon walks
  • Multi-day trail and hut trips
  • Navigation and map-reading workshops
  • Shared transport to trailheads

Your first meet-up

  • Someone meets you. A welcome buddy greets first-timers and makes introductions.
  • Pick your level. Groups are split by experience so you're never out of your depth.
  • What to bring. Water, sun protection, a snack and shoes with grip. The trip note lists anything extra.
  • Safe and friendly. Every meet-up has a named host and follows our code of conduct.
