What is Hike it Baby?


Hike it Baby (HiB) is a non profit organization founded by Shanti Hodges that’s dedicated to getting young children together outside with their families, friends, and caregivers. The community is based around a website where families can find local hikes and join other families in their area for friendly, judgement -free community-based hikes and walks. There are strong guiding principles in the community such as “leave no hiker behind” and always having a lead and a caboose to scoop up any hikers who need to stop and change a diaper or feed a child. In just a few short years HiB has grown to 330 branches across 48 states and 7 Canadian provinces. HiB hosts over 3,000 hikes EVERY month in the US and Canada, all of which are organized and led by volunteers.
