ABOUT

Who We Are

Established in 2021, Chub Rub Hiking Club was born from a decade-long friendship and a shared passion for exploring the outdoors.

We've not only worked together but also traveled and experienced life's adventures side by side. And, on our journey we have observed a noticeable lack of diversity on the hiking trails of Southern Ontario, particularly for individuals like us; female, non-binary, plus-sized, people of color... with bad knees.

We founded Chub Rub Hiking Club with the goal of creating a welcoming space for individuals of all sizes, colors, backgrounds and abilities to come together and connect with nature, free from judgement, criticism and at a pace we can all enjoy! Having experienced the profound benefits in our own bodies and mental health, we truly believe that everyone deserves access to the transformative power of hiking.

We hope you'll join us in making this happen. Hope to see you on the trails.
