50 Years of Protecting the Places You Love to Hike
Whether you are tackling a rugged peak in New Hampshire’s White Mountains or taking a quiet morning walk on a local community path, every mile of trail exists because someone chose to care for it.
Founded in 1976, American Hiking Society (AHS) began as a small group of passionate hikers who saw a growing need to advocate for national trail protections. Over the past five decades, AHS has grown into the leading national voice for trail preservation, volunteer stewardship, and outdoor advocacy. From backcountry wilderness routes to urban greenways, AHS works nationwide to make sure trail access is never limited by geography, background, or experience level.
Real Impact on the Ground
Caring for the outdoors isn't just about policy; it's about hands-on service and community connection. Through programs like National Trails Day® and Volunteer Vacations, AHS brings people together to care for public lands and protect the hiking experience for generations to come:
- 46,000+ Miles of Trail Maintained:
Over 650,000 volunteers have contributed $96 million in labor to restore and preserve public lands nationwide.
- $100M+ Secured for Trails:
Direct legislative advocacy in Washington, D.C., through initiatives like Hike the Hill®, ensures federal funding reaches the public lands and trails we rely on.
A Shared Belief in Reliable Gear and Open Trails
We know that feeling well-prepared on the trail is the first step toward building a lifelong passion for nature. By pairing our 110-year New England woolen heritage with AHS’s 50-year legacy of trail stewardship and advocacy, this special edition sock is designed to keep your feet comfortable for every mile ahead while directly funding the protection of the trails underfoot.
