The Urban Hiking Club (UHC) by Hike Tribe is all about helping people build a healthy outdoor habit, stay active, and connect with others. Our goal is to make movement social, fun, and accessible, without cutting into your weekend plans.

We run fortnightly morning hikes that are just two hours long, giving you the perfect energising start to your Saturday while still leaving the rest of the day free. Our signature event, Hike the Yarra, takes you on a guided walk through the scenic trails of Yarra Bend, right in the heart of Melbourne.

It’s more than just a walk. It’s a way to move your body, meet like-minded people, and grow a supportive community around shared wellbeing. Whether you're new to hiking or just looking to stay active in good company, come join us! Friends, family, and furry companions welcome!
