This month’s issue of the Georgia Mountaineer — the bulletin of the Georgia Appalachian Trail Club — features Serena’s reflections from RWN’s annual overnight hike to the Len Foote Hike Inn.

Three years into her journey with RWN’s Outdoor Wellness program, Serena Tun has hiked, biked, and paddled across North Georgia. This summer she stepped into a new role, co-leading her first overnight trip as a Peer Leader alongside fellow leader Esther — guiding 20 women from nine countries to the Hike Inn and back. Cute pic of @refa.25h as well! 🌲 🫂 Serena is also part of the ICS Teacher Pipeline program, building her future in the classroom while building community on the trail. From her first hike to leading her own — and now in print — we’re so proud of you, Serena! 💚 📸 Featured in the August 2026 issue of the Georgia Mountaineer, courtesy of GATC, who has supported RWN’s outdoor program since 2022. @atingeorgia @ilovehikeinn @serena.htet #RefugeeWomensNetwork #PeerLeadership #OutdoorWellness #ClarkstonGA #WomenOnTheTrail
