Discovering the Appalachian Trail

A new and excellent book from Amber and Joshua Niven and we chat with them about their Appalachian trail hiking backgrounds and of course, about their new book. They share their insights on making your Appalachian Trail experience the best there can be!
From beginners to thru-hikers, Discovering the Appalachian Trail has something for anyone that wants a connection with the nation’s longest marked footpath at approximately 2,181 miles. Starting at Springer Mountain in Georgia and finishing far to the north in Maine’s Mount Katahdin, the A.T. crosses 14 states, 6 national parks, and 8 national forests. Taking on the A.T. is a pilgrimage because of both its beauty and accessibility. Let Joshua Niven and Amber Adams guide you across the best trails that the Appalachian Trail has to offer. Complete with full-color photography, you’ll also have hikes suited to every ability, mile-by-mile directional cues, sidebars, and maps.
You can find their book at your local bookstore (best option!) or on Amazon.
