American Hiking Society, a national nonprofit organization, announced a two-year partnership agreement with AKHG, the newest outdoor apparel brand to join the market, as the Exclusive Apparel Sponsor of National Trails Day for 2022 and 2023.
AKHG offers solution-based apparel and outerwear for hiking, fishing, camping and more. The brand provides clothes and gear for those who love the rolled-up-sleeves side of adventure and embrace the work that goes with playing in the wild.
For 30 years, American Hiking Society has hosted National Trails Day. Taking place on the first Saturday in June, National Trails Day is a day of public events aimed at advocacy and trail service. Through hosted events in all 50 states, thousands of hikers, bikers, rowers, horseback riders, trail clubs, federal and local agencies, land trusts, and businesses come together in partnership to advocate for, maintain, clean up, and ensure welcoming access for all to public lands and trails.
National Trails Day 2021 saw 565 registered events across the United States, with more than 36,000 participants. Nearly half of these events focused on trail stewardship, with 111 miles of trail maintained and restored thanks to volunteers and event participants.
