Retreat into the wild. Return to yourself.
Adventure retreats designed for women seeking connection, movement, nature, and transformation.
Welcome to Wildside Retreats
Wildside Retreats helps women reconnect with their wild through outdoor adventure, movement, and nature.
From rock climbing to yoga in wild landscapes, our retreats are designed to build confidence, connection, and a deep sense of belonging — no matter your experience level.
Step into nature, movement, and a community of wild-hearted women.
Come climb, move, and reconnect with yourself in the wild.
Rock Climbing
Whether you’re new to rock climbing or have years of experience, our retreats invite you to experience the world from new heights while building meaningful connection with like-minded women.
As you climb, you’ll discover strength, confidence, and a deeper sense of presence, feeling more empowered in your body and more connected to yourself and nature.
All rock climbing experiences are led by professional AMGA-certified guides. All necessary gear is provided, and every day on the rock is led with a strong focus on safety, support, and care.
Each climbing experience is tailored to your individual skill level, from beginner-friendly instruction to more advanced guided routes, so you can progress at your own pace with confidence.
Yoga & Wellness
Step away from the noise and into presence through guided yoga and meditation led by certified instructors.
These practices are designed to complement your time in the outdoors, supporting a deeper connection between mind and body while enhancing awareness, strength, and mobility.
Together, yoga and rock climbing create a powerful balance of movement and mindfulness, helping you feel more grounded, open, and connected in both practice and life.
Accommodations
Depending on the retreat, accommodations may include boutique lodging or immersive outdoor basecamps designed to keep you close to nature.
All trip details, including where you’ll stay and what to bring, are shared ahead of time so you can arrive prepared and at ease.

Meals & Nourishment
Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are provided on all retreat days to keep you nourished and supported throughout your experience.

Wild Women Testimonials
“Sabrina did such a good job planning and executing this event. The rock climbing guides were AMAZING. I'd trust my life to them any day. I really liked the climbing-focused learning: anchor building, rappelling, etc., was great to learn from experts. The accommodations blew me away and the food was so, so delicious.” — Megan
“I had an amazing time in Joshua Tree with Wildside Retreats and Uprising Adventure Guides, and a whole bunch of very impressive ladies! Truly an unforgettable experience and I cannot wait to go back again.” — Ellen
“I’ve been curious about using climbing to cross train for races and this was definitively the most kick ass way to try it out. Despite being one of the only inexperienced climbers in the group, everyone went out of their way to answer my questions, give me pointers, and cheer me on. I left with my tank filled to the brim, a ton of new bad ass friends, and a whole other hobby to dive into. So incredibly grateful for this.” — Kelly
“Awesome retreat!!! I absolutely LOVED the retreat. It was my first experience climbing outdoors and it could not have been better. I felt very safe, whereas the other two times I’ve climbed outside since, I felt much more anxious. Thank you for the awesome time.” — Hanna
“I have so much to share about my recent camping trip in California. This one is solely to serve appreciation to these special bad ass females in the trip. You all rock and it was such an inspiration to listen to your stories and journey in climbing. Thank you, Sabrina P., for hosting the perfect retreat where female climbers from all levels can openly explore their wild side! Thank you Uprising Adventure Guides for leading all our routes and teaching us the secrets in Joshua Tree! Thank you, Sabrina C., for capturing all of the moments in this trip!”
— Annie
Your wild side is calling.
