Join the AMC on Saturday, June 4, for National Trails Day celebrations across the AMC region. Sponsored nationally by the American Hiking Society to promote awareness and cooperation among trail users, the day involves participants at events across the country.

Come celebrate our trails by enjoying them and giving a little time to protect them. No experience is necessary and all the tools you’ll need are provided in most cases. Check with the organizers for specific details.

If you can’t join us on National Trails Day, see a listing of other volunteer trail crew offerings in the White Mountains, NH, Berkshires, MA, and Baxter State park and Acadia National Park, ME.

Here is a full listing of 2011 National Trails Day events. Check back with us often as we add more exciting programs for National Trails Day. Click on the event title for a full description:
