Appalachian Trail

7 days / 412 miles / 11 hours 27 minutes

"Three Southern states - Georgia, Tennessee and North Carolina - each claim a section of the 2175-mile Maine-to-Georgia trail. Victoria Logue, inveterate hiker and author of a half-dozen books including 'The Best of the Appalachian Trail: Day Hikes' and 'Overnight Hikes' gives readers a taste of the epic journey." - Trip 10 of The Carolinas, Georgia & the South Trips by Alex Leviton, Kevin Raub, Adam Skolnick, Emily Matchar
