Discover the Appalachian Trail with National Geographic

Stretching nearly 2,200 miles from Springer Mountain in Georgia to Katahdin in Maine, the legendary Appalachian Trail--known simply as the A.T.--winds through 14 states and some of America's most breathtaking landscapes. Taking on this trail, whether for a weekend adventure or a life-changing thru-hike, is an unforgettable experience that rewards careful planning and preparation.

The National Geographic Appalachian Trail Overview and Planning Map is an essential companion for every hiker. Designed for both first-time trekkers and seasoned adventurers, this beautifully detailed map and its accompanying infographics make planning easier, smarter, and more inspiring.

The map displays the entire length of the A.T., highlighting nearby towns, roads, section markers, and key waypoints. A comprehensive trail chart provides cumulative mileage from both termini, section distances, average slope, elevation gain and loss, and the highest and lowest points along each segment. You'll also find practical details such as shelters, parking areas, river crossings, campsites, and nearby airports--everything you need to plan with confidence.

For extended journeys, a convenient resupply table lists services and food options along the trail, making it simple to organize a multi-day, weeklong, or full thru-hike adventure.

Whether you're dreaming, preparing, or already lacing up your boots, the National Geographic Appalachian Trail Overview and Planning Map is the perfect tool to turn your A.T. plans into reality.
