A group of 15 women ascended the Yorkshire Dales, motivated by Rhiane Fatinikun, founder of Black Girls Hike, which aims to make outdoor spaces more inclusive for Black women. Established in 2019, the organization addresses the racial disparities in British hiking culture. Fatinikun, now a prominent outdoor influencer, emphasizes the restorative power of nature and the importance of community. Despite facing challenges, including online racism, she remains focused on fostering connections and encouraging women to explore the outdoors.
