OWL had its humble beginnings in 2014 as an outdoors club founded by Thamjeeth Abdul Gaffoor, Nahian Alam, and Hassan Siddiqui, who just enjoyed being outside. We planned trips we would have attended anyway, but invited others to join. Soon, we discovered that many beginners wanted to join us on our trips but lacked the equipment or expertise to get started. We realized we could do more.

Ontario Wanderers League (OWL) is now a member-owned co-operative with a focus on guided, curated, educational outdoor trips in good company. Our members are enthusiastic about staying active and exploring nature while leaving a minimal trace. We believe that being in touch with nature helps us understand why it is so important to protect it, so we’d like to make getting outdoors and having fun as accessible as possible.

Even if you’re new to outdoor adventures, you’ll feel at home with our group of friendly leaders ready to help you get your bearings in the great outdoors. And, come rain or shine, our trips are an excellent opportunity to build friendships and camaraderie to last a lifetime.
