AMC’s work and community have never been more important. We invite you to join AMC as a member and find out how you can help protect critical landscapes.
Dedicated to the protection, enjoyment, and
understanding of the outdoors
We protect the mountains, forests, waters, and trails of the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions through hands-on stewardship, scientific research, and public policy advocacy. Our staff and volunteers maintain and build more than 1,800 miles of trails on the East Coast, including segments of the Appalachian Trail.
We advocate for land and water conservation, research environmental issues, and work with local and national policymakers to protect the outdoors. We believe that environmental protection must be driven by science. Our conservation team produces high-quality, peer-reviewed data and analysis on climate change.
Join a community of people who love the outdoors as much as you do. Get exclusive discounts and access to thousands of activities every year while helping to protect and sustain the outdoors.
AMC’s volunteers are the lifeblood of our organization - sign-up today to help maintain public trails, lead a trip, share your skills, speak up for conservation, or participate in community science.
As a nonprofit organization, AMC depends on the generosity of our donors to help carry out our mission. Please consider a gift today to help drive our trail repair work, educational programs, environmental research, and conservation advocacy.
