What are ORAC Ladies Only Trips?
ORAC Ladies Only Trips are specialised adventures designed exclusively for women, offering a safe, empowering, and fun environment to explore new off road destinations and engage in exciting training activities lead by our ORAC Committee. These trips provide a perfect balance of adventure, relaxation, and bonding opportunities, tailored to the unique interests and needs of women.
ORAC Ladies Only Trips often feature sand driving activities and camping under the stunning Oman Night sky combined with moments of tranquillity like watching the sun set over the Wahiba Desert. The focus is on creating a supportive, all-female space where participants can connect, make new friends, and share empowering experiences.
Other activities include competitions with great prizes and ORAC’s outdoor cinema. These trips are ideal for women looking for a getaway where they can challenge themselves, enjoy nature, and form lasting connections with like-minded women, all while exploring incredible locations in a comfortable and inclusive setting.
