Perpetuating a Trail The Appalachian Trail’s Reach and Role
The Appalachian Trail first proposed fifty years ago and finished in 1935 spans 2025 miles through eight national forests and two national parks across fourteen states from Maine to Georgia. It aims to join the National Trail System with maintenance by the National Park Service as encroaching civilization grows. Thousands hike segments yearly, though few complete the full route, while clubs and individuals continue preserving this outdoor resource for future generations.
