There was a time when Amira Patel had never hiked, and upon her first 3km hike up Rivington Pike with her mother, Aysha, she struggled. A few years on, and Amira has now inspired and created an outdoors community of over 1000 Muslim women in a social hiking group called ‘The Wanderlust Women’.

This is Amira and Aysha’s story of joint turmoil resulting in a discovery of the outdoors, as well as their experiences of
diversifying the space as Muslim women.
