In 1955, Emma Gatewood left her Ohio home, telling her family she was going for a walk. That "walk" turned into a 2,000-mile trek through mountains, rivers, and untamed wilderness.
At 67, she became the first woman to solo thru-hike the entire Appalachian Trail in a single season. Without high-tech gear, sponsors, or support
, she carried only a homemade denim sack, a shower curtain for shelter, and wore a simple pair of Keds sneakers.
Why did she do it? To prove she could.
Emma had endured a lifetime of hardship — raising 11 children, surviving an abusive marriage, and weathering the Great Depression.
After reading about the Appalachian Trail in National Geographic, she decided she could walk it. So, she did.
With unwavering grit, the kindness of strangers, and a profound love for nature, she completed the trail, inspiring generations of hikers.
She returned to hike it again in 1960 and finished a third trek in sections by 1963, becoming the first person to complete the trail three times.
Emma’s courage and determination transformed the hiking world, igniting interest in ultralight backpacking and bringing national attention to the Appalachian Trail.
Today, her legacy endures. Hikers still follow the same paths she blazed, walking in the footsteps of Grandma Gatewood — the woman who went out for a walk and never turned back.
