Welcome to THRU-r, an online community for long distance hikers! We thought we’d introduce ourselves, so here goes:

WHAT IS OUR “WHY”?

In a word: Community

WHO ARE WE?

We at THRU-r are on a mission to:

  1. Help future hikers prepare for their journeys
  2. Create and continue the on-trail community after hikers are done with their long distance treks

WHAT WE HAVE TO OFFER

  • THRU-MEETS: Online community meetups (free for all)
  • THRU-MEETS: One-on-one sessions and shakedowns with an experienced thru-hiker
  • THRU-BEATS: A Spotify playlist curated by thru-hikers (and you can contribute too!)
  • THRU-COOKING: A chance to be featured in a cookbook (thru/section hikers)
  • THRU-BLOG: An informative blog (you’re here!)
  • THRU-BLOG: Helpful resource links for first-time thru-hikers
  • THRU-SHOP: Products inspired by thru-hiking (coming soon)
