50 Miles. 90 Days.
Your Trails.
Take on a 50-mile hiking challenge designed to get you outside, keep you moving, and give you a goal worth chasing. Choose your own trails, hike at your own pace, track your miles, and complete all 50 miles within 90 days.
Along the way, we encourage you to leave the trails a little better than you found them by safely picking up litter whenever you can.
Fuel Your 50 Miles and Get the Challenge FREE
You're going to need hydration for those miles anyway. Grab your Hiker's Blend Advanced Hydration and we'll include your Operation Clean Up Trail Challenge registration FREE.
Complete your miles. Earn your patch. Stay hydrated along the way.Can You Hike 50 Miles in 90 Days?
That's the challenge.
There are no designated trails, no required locations, and no complicated verification. Hike the places you already love, discover somewhere new, or do a little of both.
Every qualifying hike moves you closer to your 50-mile goal. Go two miles after work. Knock out five miles on Saturday. Plan a big hiking weekend. How you reach 50 miles is completely up to you.
This is your challenge, your pace, and your adventure. The goal is simple: get outside and finish those 50 miles.
How the 50-Mile Challenge Works
No designated trails. No GPS verification. Just get outside, track your miles, and work your way toward 50.

Start When You're Ready
Your 90-day challenge period begins with your first qualifying hike, not the day you register.
Stack Your Miles
Hike wherever you want. Each qualifying hike must be at least one mile. Track them as you work toward 50.
Complete 50 Miles
Reach 50 total hiking miles within 90 days and complete your Operation Clean Up Trail Challenge.
You Decide When Your Challenge Begins
Register today without worrying about losing challenge time. Your 90-day window begins on the date of your first logged qualifying hike. From that day, you'll have 90 days to reach your 50-mile goal.
While You're Hiking, Leave the Trail a Little Better
The 50 miles are your challenge. But those miles also give us an opportunity to do something positive for the places we love to hike.
If you spot a bottle, wrapper, can, or another piece of litter along your route, safely pick it up and carry it out with you.
You don't have to clean an entire trail. You don't need to fill a bag. Just help when you can.
Imagine hundreds of hikers completing thousands of challenge miles while each leaving the trail just a little cleaner than they found it.
One small action may not seem like much. Thousands of small actions can make a big difference.
Complete the Challenge and We'll Have a Tree Planted
Finish your 50-mile challenge and we'll have a tree planted on your behalf. Your challenge doesn't just give you another reason to get outside. It also gives something back.
