Kimberly Kephart Travels

Hey Reader This has been a long time coming — and I’m so excited to finally share it with you. I’ve just launched two brand new Facebook groups created around the communities I love most: travel and hiking. And honestly? I’ve been hanging out in there alone for about a week wondering if I should tell anyone, so consider this your official invitation to join me before I start talking to myself about trail snacks, wine and travel deals. Because here’s the thing — travel can feel really...

Hey Reader, As the year winds down, I always start thinking about what’s next.What adventures do I want to say yes to this time? (all of them)Which trails still whisper my name when I close my laptop at night? For me… it’s the Italian Alps. Again. After the MADE Trek at the end of August (yes — that wild, breathtaking week across the Carnic Alps), I can’t stop thinking about bringing a small group of women back for a hut-to-hut adventure in 2026. Think: Friulian Dolomites, stopping by Malga...

Hey friends, A week ago, I had the opportunity to sit down with Laura Ericson on her Type 2 Travel podcast, and let me tell you, this conversation felt different. Laura introduced me as someone who proves that adventure doesn’t have an expiration date, and honestly, that’s exactly what I want other women to hear.

Kimberly Kephart Travels So, How About Jordan? Sorry if you’ve heard me talk about this a hundred times… but honestly, it’s Jordan. Can you blame me? So here’s the deal: I’ve got a trip to Jordan planned for next spring, April 12th- 19th and it’s going to be epic—think Petra, Wadi Rum, the Dead Sea, and enough hummus to fuel a small army. This camel said he’s only coming if we get 6 sign-ups by October… so don’t let him down. But there’s a catch.This trip is like a secret club, and the...

KIMBERLY KEPHART TRAVELS Fall in Northern Italy: From Harvest Festivals to Mountain Hikes Not me running straight into fall.... Hey Reader Have you ever pictured yourself in Northern Italy in the fall? Imagine golden leaves drifting across mountain trails, the scent of roasted chestnuts in the air, and villagers celebrating centuries-old traditions. It’s the season of cheese festivals, crisp wines, apple harvests, and the joyful Desmontegada (or Almabtrieb), when decorated cows return from...

Greetings from Italy, It's been a long summer over here in Vicenza, and I've got a few new posts on the blog for you to check out, but first: For those of you who don't know, I am hosting a Group trip to Jordan in 2026.

I've gotten a lot of questions about if it's safe right now, and word on the street is: Yes, it's safe. Flights are still going in and out of Amman. Find...
