Less than 4 weeks to go until the Strong Women Trek
Join hundreds of like-minded women and the Stylist team this summer for a half-marathon hike.
We’re counting down the days until the Strong Women Trek returns to the beautiful Surrey Hills on Saturday 14 June 2025.
A 22km charity hike, the Strong Women Trek is your annual opportunity to connect with hundreds of other women and get active and inspired. The trek will see us hiking through the stunning countryside and makes for the perfect summer challenge. It’s also a great chance to make a difference: £5 from each ticket sale is going to our charity partner, The Intrepid Foundation.
A day of walking, community and nature, this half-marathon route will end with an epic celebration, finisher’s medal and a goody bag at our event village.

This year’s sponsor, Intrepid Travel, will also be bringing their brand to life on the day through various activations at the event village, including a Bollywood inspired warm up station, chill out zones, photo booths and more. You’ll also have the chance to win your dream trip with Intrepid, with 1000s of experiences to choose from in over 100 countries.
This route is also dog-friendly, so please do bring your pup along, too.
*If you purchase a ticket after this date, you will still be able to collect a Trek t-shirt at the event, however, we cannot guarantee that it will be the correct size.
We all know the massive benefits that spending more time in nature can provide, but given our hectic lives, it can be difficult to carve out the time. That’s why we’ve purposely chosen a route that is super-accessible by train, Tube, bus or car.
The event starts and finishes at Guildford Cricket Club, a 14-minute walk from Guildford train station with frequent trains here to/from London Waterloo.
Celebrate at the event village
The event village is at the heart of the Strong Women Trek and thanks to the closed loop route, it is both the starting point and finish line of the hike.
The perfect place to celebrate your incredible achievement with hundreds of other Stylist women, you can look forward to a range of drinks and snacks to refuel after your hike, plenty of comfy seating, as well as the chance to collect your stunning finisher’s medal and goody bag.
