Tracking & Challenges
What is a hiking challenge?
Last updated Apr 28, 2026
Hiking challenges are a way to turn your hikes into clear, structured goals.
A hiking challenge is a goal made up of specific targets—such as mountains, trails, or locations—that you work toward completing over time.
Instead of hiking without direction, challenges give your activity purpose. You might work toward summiting a list of peaks, completing a long trail, or visiting a set of locations.
With Hikers Challenge, your hikes are automatically matched to these targets, and your progress is tracked as you go. You can browse available challenges and see how your hikes contribute toward completion.
