My wife surprised me with a Rim 2 Rim 2 Rim medal after completing the hike. When I opened it there was a personalized note to her from Hiker Medals that said they switched out the medal to the R2R2R medal based on the engraving she provided. She didn’t even know they had a R2R2R medal when she ordered. Amazing to see that someone actually takes the time to read the engraving…check it against the medal…and make the call to change to the right medal. Above and beyond service. Also incredible value as the medal itself is really nicely made.

I am always a little hesitant, ordering from places. I am unfamiliar with on the Internet, but took a chance on ordering a couple of these medals for a recent bucket list hike.

I made an error when ordering online on the engraving, but emailed the company immediately and they Responded immediately that they would correct for my error.

I received the medals the other day and could not be more impressed or happier with their product, their customer service and the end result of the engraving.

I will be ordering from them again, and will be recommending these metals to all my hiking friends!

I purchased 2 Camino de Santiago medals for my husband and me as an anniversary gift. We recently completed a portion of the Camino and wanted to remember our time in Spain. The medals were very detailed and the personal engraving makes our medals that much more meaningful. Wim answered questions almost immediately and the customer service and attention to detail were beyond expectations! Very pleased! Thank you Hiker Medals!!

For many years I purchased Hiker Medals for myself and others. (I did my Grand Canyon of Rim2Rim2Rim and purchased the Medals for my entire group, way back in 1991). I heard other people to go on Hikes throughout these many years and bought for them their own Hiker Medals. You have SO many medals for SO many hiking adventures. I pray and trust your Company may continue to provide momentoes of their Hike. The engraving offer is an added to make to more personal for the individual. Your Service and the quickness of completing and sending out the Orders are great. You are the BEST.

I am absolutely thrilled to share our wonderful experience with the custom medals offered by Hiker Medals.

From the moment we reached out to Wim, the entire process was incredibly smooth and enjoyable. His professionalism and enthusiasm for his craft were evident from our very first interaction. Wim’s attentive nature and willingness to listen to our specific requirements made working with him an absolute pleasure. He took the time to understand our vision and provided valuable insights to ensure that the result would be nothing less than perfect.

The quality of the custom medals and engraving exceeded all expectations. We were looking for a custom design and color scheme for three mountain medals.

We recommend this company to anyone seeking high-quality, personalized products coupled with a seamless and enjoyable customer experience. Thank you, Wim, for creating such treasured keepsakes.

I received the Appalachian Trail medal today. It is beautiful !! I thought that it looked great on your website but what I received exceeded my expectations. It looks fantastic and is such a high quality and substantial product. Thank you. I am sure that my niece will be delighted to receive it when I see her next weekend.

I’m proud to say I have a few of these, and I put the miles in for every one of them. Great quality, heavy, solid. My wife says “where are you going to put them”, but I’m ignoring it. I have bragging rights. 🙂

I have ordered a few times over the years and wanted to thank Wim for these unique keepsakes. The workmanship is excellent with perfect engraving. The shipping was so quick. I would not mind lighter medals and more trail designs (hopefully based on user inputs) in the future.

I love my Matterhorn medal. Super craftsmanship, great looking and certainly befitting such a beautiful mountain. Thanks for producing such a wonderful product, and I love the story of how your company began.

Keep up the great work!!! – HB –  Houston, Texas

AH-MAZ-ING! I’m a marathon runner and have 30+ races under my belt, so I have my fair share of medals. This Mt Kilimanjaro medal is heavy and is an amazing quality. To top it all off it’s engravable and Wim has surpassed my expectations in customer service. My husband & I will be celebrating our 25th anniversary by climbing Mt Kili next month. I wanted to surprise my husband with a medal at the summit. I couldn’t decide what message to have written on the back and changed my mind several times.Wim was wonderful to work with and I received my medals in just a couple of days. I’m blown away by his service and wish that he had several other stores to purchase from. There’s a good reason why so many people give this store 5 stars. I couldn’t recommend the medals or this store more!

This past year, my 69 year old mother climbed to the top of Angel’s Landing with my sister on their trip to Utah.  She’s very proud of her achievement!  Since we’re also very proud of her, I set out to find an Angel’s Landing inspired gift to commemorate the occasion to give to her as a Christmas gift.  By chance, I found Hiker Medals!  This couldn’t have been a more perfect gift.  When the medal was delivered, we decided that it was too good of a gift to give for Christmas.  So we gave it to her this past weekend as a 70th birthday present.  We wrote a poem about her hike and surprised her with a medal presentation ceremony.  It brought her to tears because she said she never received a medal before.  Thank you so much, Wim, for creating Hiker Medals!

Angel’s Landing Medal Review:  Absolutely beautiful!  The quality and design surpassed all of my expectations.  The medal has a nice weight to it and the ribbon is very sturdy.

Shipping + Customer Service Review:  Wim responds to questions/messages readily.  I also could not believe how quickly he engraved + shipped the medal!  Excellent customer service and such a terrific company!!!

I started buying medals from Hiker Medals when my wife and I hiked across the Grand Canyon for our 20th anniversary. Now we are trying to do the most challenging hikes through the country and have added Angels Landing, Pikes Peak, Half Dome and others. I really like the design of Angels landing and Half Dome which brings back memories of the chains and cables we used on these iconic climbs. Love this company!

I purchased 4 medals for the High Sierra Trail.  The medals are high quality and awesome.  I was surprised at how heavy they were.  I carried the medals in my pack to the top of Mt. Whitney and gave them to my co-hikers.  They loved them and I was glad I had purchased them.  This is an excerpt from one of the girls facebook post about our hike.  “My most prized possessions from this hike are my medal from Debbie, the bonds of friendship formed, and of course the memories of this truly amazing experience.  My heart is so full of gratitude for the tough ladies that adventured with me. (Referring to sunrise at the top of Mt. Whitney) Adding to an already heartfelt, magical moment, Debbie Rigsby pulls a package out of her pack and presented each of us with a medal. It had the actual path that we had traversed, with the start, exit, # of miles, # of our total elevation gain, the year, and our names. It added another layer of magic and love.  Not only that but we wound up being a big hit on the mountain.  It’s such a hard task that I think everyone wanted a medal. Lots of kudos on our way back down”.

Ordered an Appalachian Trail medal for my son.  Delivered by USPS with medal missing from their re-packaging.  Immediate response by sending out replacement medal – no questions asked.  Excellent, excellent customer service.

Jim Newell

Appreciated the design of the R2R2R medal. Was looking for something to commemorate our accomplishment. The R2R2R medal did this and then some.
