Congratulations to these CDT 2025 finalists (Part 2)

tThe Continental Divide Trail is often considered one of the most difficult and iconic hikes in North America, stretching more than 3,000 miles between the US-Mexico border in New Mexico and the US-Canada border in Montana. Every year, hundreds of hikers undertake this unforgettable journey, pushing their physical and mental limits.

Successfully completing a hike through the CDT is a huge achievement, requiring unwavering determination, mental toughness, and emotional resilience. We’re thrilled to highlight the amazing hikers who completed this trip in 2025!
