Best Gifts for Outdoorsy Girls
Let’s get on with it! Here are our picks for the best gifts for outdoorsy girls:
1. Hiking Boots
These Merrell Women’s Alpine Hiking Boots are lightweight and made with vegan leather.
I wore these for 8 month straight while we were backpacking around the world, and they were incredibly comfortable, making them perfect gifts for outdoorsy girls .
2. I f#$%ing love it here socks
Let the outdoors-obsessed woman in your life announce her love for the great outdoors with these cheeky crew socks.
Shout it loud, mama!
3. The Hiking Logbook
This unique gift for outdoorsy girls encourages her to record all her adventures in this adorable hiking journal, so she can remember every important detail to reminisce on.
4. Wallaroo Sun Hat
This Wallaroo Sun Hat is packable, waterproof, and has UPF 50+ Sun Protection. Plus it has a chin strap!
5. Mountain-Lovers Baseball Cap
I adore this mountain and tree embroidered cap and I’m sure your outdoorsy girl will too, either to wear camping, on a hike, or just around town.
6. A Woman’s Guide to the Wild
This Woman’s Outdoor Handbook is the perfect gift idea for outdoorsy women to navigate the wilderness like a pro.
Love that it pays personalized attention to women’s needs, like periods, peeing, and staying safe.
Whether you’re looking for gifts for outdoorsy moms or outdoorsy girlfriends, this fits the bill.
7. Teva Sandals
You gotta get her some Teva sandals, known for being downright comfortable and super cute.
Perfect gift for an outdoorsy girl who deserves nice things too!
8. Glamping Getaway
Sure, she loves camping, but why not try something new? You can glamp in a bell tent, yurt, bubble dome, gypsy van, treehouse, or an RV for a unique gift idea for an outdoorsy girl.
Make it a staycation, or venture far and wide, whichever you think will make her happier.
Glamping in Joshua Tree is always a good idea.
Amazing sites to look for glampgrounds are Booking.com, Vrbo and Hipcamp (get $10 off your first booking through this link).
9. National Parks Annual Pass
A National Parks Annual Pass is 100% one of the best gifts for outdoorsy women.
This pass grant free entry to over 2,000 United States recreation sites, which includes national parks like Yosemite, Grand Canyon, and Joshua Tree National Park.
It’s an incredibly thoughtful gift for an outdoorsy girl, and an amazing value. While individual parks can run around $30 each, this annual pass is $80 for the entire year.
10. 3-in-1 Heated Jacket
This Venustas Heated Jacket is 3 jackets in one, with options to make it lighter or heaver. Plus, it has a heating element, making it one of the most unique gifts for outdoorsy girls.
I brought it all around with me for 8 months while we were traveling, using it while hiking in Romania, and it kept me nice and toasty. And since it’s convertible, I can make it into a more lightweight jacket for warmer destinations.
11. Nature Walk Journal
Awaken her inner Thoreau with this Nature Walk Journal, a unique gift idea for outdoorsy girls that allows her to track all of her nature observations while enjoying the great outdoors.
12. Happy Camper Slippers
Are these not the most adorable gifts for outdoorsy women you’ve ever seen?
These packable Happy Camper slippers are so warm and comfy, and she’s sure to love them whether at a campground or at home.
13. Packable solar string lights
My dad got me these solar string camping lights and I ADORE them.
They illuminate the campsite so well, are durable and portable, and make for one of the best gifts for your outdoorsy girlfriend, mom, sister, daughter or friend.
14. Plan an Outdoor Picnic
This is one of the best romantic gifts for your outdoorsy girlfriend (and it’s perfect to do if you’re on a budget!).
Just surprise her by packing a lovely little picnic in one of her favorite stunning outdoor spots (perhaps in this picnic backpack).
You can bring meats and cheeses, get take-out, assemble sandwiches and salads—just work with your food-prep comfort level.
For our anniversary, for example, Ben got some pre-made poké at the grocery store fish counter, packed it with rice he cooked, chopped cucumbers and carrots, and brought along pickled ginger, nori seaweed packs, a bottle of wine, and chocolate.
Let me tell you, I was ecstatic, and this is certainly one of the best gifts for outdoorsy girlfriends that’ll leave her smitten.
Packing an outdoor picnic is also one of our romantic staycation ideas.
15. Survivor Water Filter
I adore the Survivor Water Pro Filter, and it’s the perfect gift for outdoorsy girls who love backpacking, allowing her to filter water anywhere she goes.
This filter is made of military-grade BPA-free ABS plastic, and removes pollen, algae, giardia, E.Coli, protozoan cysts, cryptosporidium, toxins, and heavy metals down to the .1 micron level
We’ve reviewed the filter in depth here, so you can see how portable and effective it is at filtering water anywhere.
16. Collapsible Canteens
With a capacity of 1 liter, these collapsible bottles are incredibly travel-friendly and can be easily packed without taking up lots of valuable space or weight.
They’re great for backpacking or hiking, making them the perfect gifts for outdoorsy women.
These bottles fit onto the personal water filter straw, which also makes a great gift for nature lovers who want to filter water while they drink it.

What makes these pants so amazing is how comfortable, low-maintenance and fast-drying they are, while looking completely stylish and put together.
We’ve reviewed the luxury travel Anatomie clothes in-depth here.
24. Leather Backpack
While we’ve already included a highly functional day bag on this list (see #20), we’re also including a more special day bag option. It’s a gift, after all!
We love this Mahi Leather day bag, which fits my travel camera and whatever else I need for a day of exploring.
The backpack looks beautiful, is durable, and makes a special gift for the women in your life.
25. Solar Portable Power Bank
This 20000mAh Portable Power Bank is not messing around.
It’s waterproof and has 2 led flashlights built in, plus a compass. This is perfect for camping, and it makes an incredible gift idea for outdoorsy girls.
I have one and swear by it for camping and keeping in my car for emergencies!
26. Merino Wool Blend Beanie
I’m sure the woman in your life already has beanies, but she might not have a beautiful, soft merino wool blend beanie.
Sometimes the best gifts for outdoorsy women are the items they totally deserve and would love having, but wouldn’t buy for themselves, and a special well-made cozy item like this Meriwool beanie could be just the item.
27. Happy Camping Toiletry Bag

These take up little space in a bag, making them ideal for traveling and road tripping.
29. Shockproof Laptop Case
If your outdoors-loving girl brings her laptop on the road, she needs a good shockproof laptop case, which we’ve thoroughly reviewed here.
I love mine and use it all the time whenever we go on a road trip or other travel adventure. Highly recommend!
30. Bucket List Trip
We saved the best for last, as this is likely to be a big ticket item, but it’s the absolute BEST gift for outdoorsy women.
If it’s in your budget, surprise her with a bucket list trip that she’s always wanted.
Perhaps it’s climbing glaciers in Iceland, or trekking through the rice terraces of Vietnam.
