Sole Circles are how women in midlife and beyond connect locally for in-person Rambles through our global community.
We host more than 110 Sole Circles across 6 countries, with approximately 31,000 members.
Sole Circles are free to join and participate in. If you love being part of the community, we invite you to consider purchasing an optional paid membership to support us.
Our Sole Circles are hosted on WhatsApp, so you must use WhatsApp to join.
Sole Circles are member-led, which means members organize the Rambles. While Rambles are often walks or hikes, they can be any activity members enjoy.
You can join as many Sole Circles as you like to connect with your Sole Sisters—at home or while travelling.
Everywhere is within Rambling distance with Sole Sisters.
