About Wilderness Heals
The Wilderness Heals pledge hike was founded in 1996 by volunteers and staff at the Elizabeth Stone House (ESH) to raise funds for the Elizabeth Stone House. The hike offers individuals and organizations innovative means to express their support for ESH and the women and families that it serves.
The three-day Wilderness Heals hike covers several parts of New Hampshire's White Mountains. Wilderness Heals route options offer a range of trails accessible to women with varying levels of experience including a backcountry camping option. Hikers spend three days hiking and two nights at AMC huts, which provide beds, blankets, dinner and breakfast. The backcountry camping option affords hikers the opportunity to experience the wilderness in a supportive environment. Participants on this leg pitch tents and cook their own food. Round-trip transportation between Boston and the trailheads is provided. Any woman who wants to meet the physical, emotional, and fundraising challenges of the hike is welcome to participate. This includes: seasoned hikers and new hikers, outdoor enthusiast and those interested in discovering their love for the outdoors, survivors of domestic violence or trauma and their supporters, business women, workout enthusiasts, and those who are looking for a great way to get in shape while raising money for an amazing cause! By coming together as a group of women, using our strength and vitality to gather resources to benefit the Elizabeth Stone House, we will all find the empowerment, self-help, and mutual support that are at the core of the Elizabeth Stone House’s very effective programs.
