We’re Lauren and Owen, The AZ Hikeaholics, and we’re passionate about sharing resources to empower you to have fun hiking, explore confidently & recreate responsibly.
We started sharing our hikes as The AZ Hikeaholics in April 2020 after we found ourselves outdoors every weekend in the beautiful state of Arizona and beyond. We quickly gained an appreciation for the outdoors beyond what we knew possible, an almost indescribable feeling and passion for nature.
During that time we realized we wanted to share with others, without gatekeeping public lands. However, we also recognize the responsibility to promote safe and responsible recreation, especially to high traffic and highly sensitive areas. We are strong believers in incorporating the Leave No Trace Principles into our posts and representing Appreciate AZ principles.
Hiking boots required, or not, we love to spend time outdoors. Here you can find the activities we’ve done and tips so you can enjoy too!
We’re putting our parks pass to good use. Whether it’s a National Park or a State Park, we’ve got you covered.
From day trips to multiple nights out of town, here you’ll find inspiration to hit the road.
Get to see us behind the scenes, learn what matters to us at home, and prep like we do.
This is the way! Ok no Mandalorian content here, but we do cover places we visit the most, the gear we bring with us, and tips for creating your ideal trip.
