This post is brought to you by National Trails Day® Exclusive Apparel Sponsor AKHG by Duluth Trading Company.

American Hiking Society’s 30th Annual National Trails Day® is coming up on June 4, 2022 and we hope to celebrate with you and your community! National Trails Day® is about coming together and leaving the trail and the outdoor community better than you found them. There are so many different ways to spend National Trails Day® and together with Exclusive Apparel Sponsor, AKHG by Duluth Trading Company, we’re highlighting the top three ways to participate!

JOIN 

Whether a group hike, paddle, bike ride, trail clean-up, or a trail maintenance project, we encourage folks to host or participate in a community event. Events will take place from Alaska to Florida and hundreds of trailheads between. It’s the perfect opportunity to connect with those in your community who share your love of being outside.

PLEDGE

We invite you to make a commitment to trails and the outdoor community by taking this year’s National Trails Day® Pledge: “In honor of #NationalTrailsDay, I’ll leave the trail and the outdoor community better than I found them.”  By taking the Pledge you’ll automatically be entered to win thousands of dollars of prizes from our partners and sponsors like AKHG by Duluth Trading Company! We’ll also send you easy ways to make a big impact through advocacy and service for the trails you love. 

Whether you pick up that plastic water bottle next to the trail, send a message to your congressperson (it’s easier than you think), show up for your first trail service project, or welcome someone new to your favorite local trail you can help leave the trail and the outdoor community better than you found them.
