Escape the City, Find your People and Live a Wilder Life
Wilderness Union is much more than a hiking club. We're an outdoor adventure community that will help you escape the city, find community and feel more alive with weekly wilderness adventures.
We host over 100 unique adventures throughout the year, from hiking to paddling and back-country camping, all tailored to your skill level. We figure out the gear, logistics and transport so you can just show up.
We'll take you to the most incredible trails Ontario has to offer. From our famous secret hikes in untouched wilderness locations that we only share with WU members to local adventures, you'll discover more of the province than you ever thought possible.
