Athara Adventures

See Yourself in the Mountains

Athara Adventures was founded by a group of women from three generations. Together, we bring decades of experience in mountaineering, business, operations, and mental health.

For over ten years, we have explored the stunning European mountains and valleys. Our love for the region’s culture and people inspired us to make the French Pyrenees our home. Now, we dedicate ourselves to sharing mountain experiences with you.

Athara Adventures is named after the legendary Amazon warrior, leader, and teacher, Athara. She may have lived nearly 3,000 years ago near the Black Sea in modern-day Ukraine. Athara led a community of women known for their fierce loyalty to each other.

We admire the values they held dear: honor, loyalty, courage, and sisterhood. These values inspire us to invite others, especially women, to join us for active vacations.

We are continually amazed at the strong bonds formed through shared experiences in the mountains. We enjoy sharing delicious food and drink in the evenings. Together, we laugh over stories of the day.

We invite you to book an accessible hiking or biking tour today!

Athara Adventures – See Yourself in the Mountains

It is impossible to traverse a remote mountain landscape without feeling a deep connection within you. Therefore, Athara Adventures aims to share the magic of that experience by making the mountains accessible.

We offer tours for travelers with various experience levels, including introductory and intermediate hiking, bike touring, and e-mountain biking. Designed for different fitness levels, each tour allows you to authentically connect with the land, culture, and history of France, Ireland, Norway, or Spain.

Meticulously crafted by local tour leaders, our tours create deeply engaging experiences. On a biking or hiking tour that suits your preference, you can feel the crisp mountain air invigorating your senses. You’ll enjoy breathtaking vistas and unparalleled serenity as you move through stunning mountain landscapes.

Beyond the mountains, experience boutique lodging, locally sourced cuisine, and visits to off-the-beaten-path artisans and cultural sites. Each step brings you closer to the heart of the landscape and yourself.

Additionally, you’ll see some of Europe’s richest history on paths steeped in culture and antiquity. Traverse hidden trails accessible only by foot or bike to experience peaceful mountain landscapes that few have seen. Choose an adventure suited to your level to reconnect and rejuvenate in ways many only dream about.

Athara Adventures includes everything you need for a fantastic tour experience. This includes thoughtfully crafted group meals that accommodate allergies and dietary restrictions. We also provide a detailed packing list to ensure you enjoy the mountains seamlessly. Furthermore, you’ll have access to tour facilitators with intimate knowledge of the region.

Additionally, we offer upgrades to enhance your vacation. Options include extending your time on a group tour or customizing a private tour just for you.

Named after the fascinating saga of Athara

A legendary Amazon warrior, leader, and teacher who may have lived nearly 3,000 years ago on the southern steppes of modern-day Ukraine near the Black Sea. Athara was a leader and spiritual teacher in a community of women known for their fierce loyalty to their clan and each other, above all else and in all circumstances. We found ourselves drawn to these women and the values they held so dear: honor, loyalty, courage, and sisterhood.

Our dedication to these values and immense gratitude for what the mountains have taught us lead us to invite others, especially women, to join us for an active vacation. We are always amazed at the strong and lasting bonds that are formed through shared experiences in the mountains, sharing delicious food and drink in the evenings, and laughing together over stories of the day. We invite you to book an accessible hiking or biking tour today.
