What Appalachian Trail Conservancy makes

Topics appalachian trail, conservation, outdoors, nature, hiking

Since 1925 the Appalachian Trail Conservancy has been leading the management and conservation of the Appalachian Trail and its landscape—a sanctuary from the modern world where nature thrives and people can connect with its transformative power. Each year, the A.T. landscape draws millions of visitors, serves as a critical wildlife corridor and refuge for thousands of diverse species, and plays a vital role in driving climate resilience and economic vitality in neighboring communities.   As the only non-profit devoted exclusively to the entire Trail, our dedicated team works passionately to bolster the health, resilience, and connectivity of the A.T. and its surrounding natural lands, manage the resources and grassroots effort needed to maintain the integrity of the treadway, and enrich visitor experiences by providing essential knowledge for safe and fulfilling Trail experiences.
