This 10.0 mile trip suitable for intermediate backpackers and above.

Experience the Appalachian Trail in late spring, when the forest is fully green and alive but the heat of summer hasn’t quite set in. Surrounded by a vibrant canopy, this section of the AT is a great place to enjoy the outdoors with a group of like-minded friends. The route offers a little bit of everything—rocky stretches, low-lying areas, and beautiful, wooded terrain.

We’ll head south on the AT to the Whiskey Hollow Shelter, where there are plenty of campsites and reliable water sources to set up for the night. There is also an older shelter nearby (Dick’s Dome).

On day two, we’ll retrace our steps along the same route.

Miles: 10.0 (roundtrip / 5.0 miles per day)

Rating: Level 6   (View Hiking Rating Scale)

For intermediate backpackers and above.

There is limited space on this trip, so please register early!
