medals designed by hikers for hikers
At Hiker Medals we design medals with you, the hiker, in mind. Our high quality medals are a worthy way to commemorate these beautiful trails or mountains and make great gifts for the passionate hiker in your life.
Our story
Hiker Medals started in 2016 after its founder, Wim, hiked the John Muir Trail and realized there were no quality souvenirs available to commemorate this amazing feat. He designed the John Muir Trail medal and took it with him on the trail. Soon after that he started receiving requests for designs for other medals and as a result there are 52 designs representing trails and mountains from all over the world.
Our Medals
Our medals are designed with the hikers in mind, making sure they do justice to the trail they represent. Many details about the trail are reflected in each medal, knowing they will become a lifelong representation of in many cases a once in a lifetime opportunity.
custom medals
If you are trying to find a medal for a trail that is not in our collection yet, please reach out to us and we will consider making a design for it. If you are looking for a custom project for a minimum of 25 medals, please contact us as well and we can make you a proposal.
Engraving & Gift Bags
Make your purchase extra-special by personalizing the medal by including an engraved message on the back or by including a gift bag in your shopping cart. This burlap drawstring pouch adds a perfect touch when the medal is a gift for a hiker.

Since we hear so many amazing stories from our customers that we would like to share, we have started our own podcast called ‘Stories that inspire us’ by Hiker Medals.
