Sponsored

Are you ready to start 2026 in a life-changing way—for yourself and to benefit others? With the Make-A-Wish Trailblaze Challenge, you can experience a unique endurance hike while directly impacting the lives of Alabama children battling critical illnesses.

Trailblazers commit to 12 weeks of guided training, culminating in a 26.3-mile hike completed in one day along the scenic Pinhoti Trail in the Talladega National Forest. Along the way, hikers test their endurance, cheer one another on and directly support Make-A-Wish Alabama’s mission to grant more than 180 wishes in 2026.

See how YOU can become a Trailblazer.
