A park that stretches through 14 states, from Maine's mighty Mt. Katadin to Georgia's forested Springer Mountain. Groups of private citizen-volunteers made this vision a reality, as a hiking path by 1937. Along its route, the AT crosses eight national forests, six other units of the national park system, about 60 state park and game lands, and valley communities. Overnight backpacking on the AT and other trails requiring strength and endurance, but you will see the forest and mountains of the Eastern United States as few people ever do. Beautiful sunsets, sunrises and vistas from cliffs and balds.
Day hikes through spring flowers and fall colors in local state parks and national forests.
Walks to explore waterfalls, cascades, and caves. Come enjoy the outdoors and beautiful natural resourses.
