Access the Map

The Appalachian Trail (A.T.) interactive map is built cooperatively by the Appalachian Trail Conservancy (ATC) and National Park Service using ESRI’s Arc GIS Online mapping technology.

While useful, this map is for general reference purposes only. Mileage on the interactive map may differ from guidebooks and maps due to variances in GIS data. Always hike with an updated map and guidebook, available from the ATC Trail Store
