Appalachian Trail Medal
Celebrate completing the Appalachian Trail with the Appalachian Trail Medal. This medal commemorates one of the most iconic long-distance hikes in the world, stretching along the eastern United States.
The Appalachian Trail (AT) spans approximately 2,190 miles, running from Georgia to Maine through forests, mountains, and remote wilderness. Known for its rich history and strong hiking community, the AT offers a deeply rewarding journey for thru-hikers and section hikers alike. As one of the legendary Triple Crown trails, alongside the Pacific Crest Trail and Continental Divide Trail, completing the AT represents one of the highest achievements in long-distance hiking. The medal design features McAfee Knob in Virginia, one of the most photographed and iconic viewpoints on the trail, along with the recognizable Katahdin summit sign, symbolizing the unforgettable start or finish of this remarkable journey.

I love it. I ordered one for a friend of mine and it arrived on Friday. Another friend of mine is finishing up the AT soon. I’m waiting for his finishing date and will order another.
I ordered this for my boyfriend who just completed the Appalachian Trail. He was so surprised and both of us blown away by the quality! We will be purchasing again as soon as we cross other trails off our list!
The medal was perfect for my best friend, who spent 11 years section hiking the Appalachian Trail. It was great to be able to engrave the dates.
Service was exceptionable - I ordered it free shipping, then worried it wouldn't get there in time. I messaged Wim to ask if I could pay for expedited shipping, and he just expedited the engraving, and paid for the extra shipping! He was so very kind and helpful.
My friend loved the medal, as did all the people celebrating with her.
Absolutely love my medal and can’t wait to get more from other trails.
My bf was finishing the AT. I mentioned in my purchase that he would be summiting Katahdin on the 17th. The seller engraved and shipped the medal within 10 minutes of my order. I was able to give it to my bf at the summit of Katahdin today and he absolutely loved it. Couldn't recommend this shop more!
Substantial. High craftsmanship. Exceeded expectations
Exceptional quality!
I can't wait to give it as a gift.
Great remembrance of hiking the AT!
The quality of the medal was exactly as described and such a nice gift to be able to give. Shipping was faster than we anticipated, super happy!
Incredible craftsmanship. My sister completed the trail and absolutely loved this gift that I sent to her. She is going to have it put in a showcase frame thank you so much.
Very well designed and manufactured
Perfect gift for my husband that thru hiked this year
This metal is a wonderful gift for any thru-hiker. It takes up less room than a plaque and it is a quality keepsake. I ordered 5 with engraving. They shipped fast and arrived in a few days.
I bought 9 of these to be gifts for the group of hikers once the reached Katadyn and finished the trail. They loved them.
I am not sure what to rave about first - the item or the artisan. This was a fabulous purchase from start to finish. We stumbled on the medal just days from our hikers finishing the AT and were astounded by the Wim’s responsiveness and generosity. This is a beautiful product and a terrific business owner. A total delight. We look forward to posting a photo of our happy hiking finishers and their wonderful medals.
Shipped and received quickly. The medal was so much better in person. Beautifully crafted and it's perfect for what I wanted.
Nicely weighted and loved by everyone
My hubs loved this gift! Highly recommend!
This is definitely too heavy to be an ornament as the product name would suggest. (and the reason I bought it). But it is a really nice medal if that’s what someone is looking for.
Item is just as advertised. Arrived quickly.
Very good quality and perfect for someone who has hiked the Appalachian trail
Just as advertised. Fast shipping. High quality. Would order again!!
The medal is very well made and if I had been wanting a medal it would have been perfect. However I was searching for a Christmas Ornament of the Appalachian Trail. The weight of it would topple most trees. Perhaps my daughter will hang it with her completion certificate from this years Thru-hike.
Heavy and solid metals with detailed designs…a fantastic way commemorate accomplishments!
Thank you again, Love your work
You did a great job and the kids loved it. Thank you!
This was perfect, beautifully crafted and as described.
Excellent quality. Just what I ordered. Slight nick/ding on the edge (otherwise would have rated it 5 stars) but we will consider that a character thing.
Thank you
