Why go there?
This epic, nearly 2,200-mile trail spans no less than 14 states, passing through an extraordinary range of territory. Begun in 1921 and completed in 1937, it was built by private citizens and is now managed by the National Park Service, US Forest Service and Appalachian Trail Conservancy, as well as state agencies. A once-in-a-lifetime journey for intrepid hikers.
