Women's Winter Hiking Retreat

Details

Join us for a rejuvenating winter escape at Camp Manitowa, designed for women who love a little adventure and nature.
Stay cozy in our heated cabins or yurts, and enjoy guided excursions on the camp bus to explore stunning state parks and scenic winter hiking trails.
After a day of hiking, unwind by the bonfire at the new outdoor kitchen, where we'll share delicious dinners. Take part in arts and crafts, a winter foraging workshop, hang by the fire, and spend peaceful time in nature.
