Triple Crown of Hiking
Complete the Appalachian Trail, the Pacific Crest Trail, and the Continental Divide Trail. Approximately 8,000 miles of America's greatest long trails. Fewer than 500 people have done all three. This badge exists because no paper certificate does it justice.

Good to Know
AT (2,193) + PCT (2,650) + CDT (~3,000) = roughly 8,000 miles. Most people complete all three over 5–15 years. No time limit. No rules on order.
Fewer people have completed the Triple Crown than have summited Everest. Official Triple Crown lists are maintained by the American Long Distance Hiking Association-West (ALDHA-West).
ALDHA-West maintains the official Triple Crown roster and issues recognition for hikers who complete all three trails. Contact them at aldhawest.org to register your completion.
You can claim your AT, PCT, and CDT completion badges separately on Trek4Free. Each trail has its own certificate. This badge is the capstone for completing all three.
