North Country National Scenic Trail

The Overlooked Promise Of The National Trails System

When we think about the National Park System, we don't always think of National Scenic Trails being part of the system, which is a huge mistake. Some of the country's greatest hiking trails are part of the system. Trails such as the Appalachian National Scenic Trail, the Ice Age National Scenic Trail, the North Country National Scenic Trail, even the Captain John Smith Chesapeake National Historic Trail.

New Long-Distance Trail Could Be In The Offing For Hikers With Time On Their Hands

For hikers with an inordinate amount of time on their hands, good feet and extra boots, a trail stretching nearly 7,000 miles and meandering through 21 states might soon be ready for them. Put another way, you could walk through the woods and across the prairies from North Dakota to Georgia.

Legislation Offered That Would Reroute Sections Of North Country Scenic Trail, Connect It With A.T.

Legislation introduced in Congress would, if enacted, one day allow you to walk from North Dakota to Vermont on the North Country Scenic Trail, and then hang a right and head down to Georgia on the Appalachian National Scenic Trail.
