About the Oboz Trail Experience
Oboz Footwear and Public Lands are inviting you to complete as many of Pittsburgh's selected trails as you can from August 15 - September 15. This Experience is designed for you to re-discover your favorite trails, learn about new or lesser-known trails, push your limits, and recreate locally! You’ll also have the chance to compete against local legends, your peers, or just yourself if that’s more your style.
Activities are limited to hiking, walking, running, and people utilizing mobility assistive devices.
All participants will receive various swag from Oboz Footwear, Public Lands, and other supporting partners. Unlock other rewards by completing Promoted Trails and everyone who completes even just one trail will be entered to win one of five pairs of Oboz shoes at the end of the Experience! The more trails you complete, the more entries you'll receive!
