Welcome to Overland Girl. Let the adventure begin.

We’re built for life outside—traveling back roads, camping wherever we can throw a tent, chasing mountain bike trails, and hunting for fresh powder to ski. Somewhere between the dirt, snow, and long drives, we got serious about finding the right adventure gear—and even more serious about calling out what works (and what doesn’t) with authentic gear reviews.

Overland Girl is where it all comes together: real travel experiences, camping setups that hold up, mountain biking routes worth the ride, snow ski days you dream about, and straight-up advice on adventure gear that’s been put to the test.

If you’re into dirt, grit, gear, and getting after it—you’ll fit right in.
