Appalachian Trail
Road Trip Adventure
Your Driving Guide: Exploring One State at a Time
From Georgia’s Springer Mountain to the lowest point on the entire trail at Bear Mountain, New York, this series follows the Appalachian Trail by car — where to stop, where to get out and hike a little, and the history hiding in every gap along the way. Five parts in, and we’re just getting to New England.
While the Appalachian Trail itself is a protected footpath reserved for hikers, you can still experience its beauty by road. This series of six detailed guides follows a scenic driving route that parallels the trail’s roughly 2,190 miles through 14 states. Each guide includes key facts, lodging suggestions, and helpful travel information as you explore beautiful parkways, winding mountain passes, charming trail towns, and quiet country roads—everything you need to get the most out of your Appalachian Trail road-trip adventure.
