The PlanetHike Team: Real People. Shared Steps. One Planet.
PlanetHike began with one bold question:
What if our steps could heal the planet?
For founder Tichi, a lifelong believer in people-powered change, the answer was personal.
From co-founding Nahow e.V. (bringing clean water and solar to Cameroon) to working at PIMCO and Ford, he saw that real progress means nothing without a healthy planet.
And he saw something else: when people walk with purpose, movements happen.
So he left the corporate track to build something deeper.
PlanetHike was born — white T-shirts, sneakers, and global impact.
We walk for Water, Art, and Trees — planting forests, funding murals, and bringing clean water to communities.
With #PlanetHike10000, we also walk for something deeply personal: Our Why.
Whether it’s 10 km in a city or 10,000 steps in your neighborhood, you walk for the planet — and for what you love.
This is more than a walk. It’s a ritual. A statement. A global step forward — one powerful message.
