Adventuring

Adventuring is a gay and lesbian outdoor group that has been serving the DC community for over 25 years. Their offerings range from short to long cycling trips, camping, hiking, rafting, skiing, skydiving, canoeing and sailing. It is formally organized as an organization, but there is no formal membership and no formal dues. It is affiliated with IGLOO, the International Gay and Lesbian Outdoor Organizations.
During Spring through Fall, the group hosts a Monday bicycle ride throughout Arlington and/​or DC, with varying lengths and effort level. During weekends, experienced hikers lead excursions to some of the best places in the DC area, the George Washington National Forest, the Shenandoahs, and the Monongahela National Forest.
A great way to get in shape. For the newcomer as well as the experienced outdoorsperson, it is a good way to get out of the city and experience the wonders of the area.
