The Appalachian Trail has a rich and full history among trails. It is the longest hiking-only footpath in the world, ranging from Maine to Georgia. It crosses 14 states and runs 2,190 miles. It was the lightbulb idea of Benton MacKaye, a Massachusetts regional planner and forester of the United States Forest Service. His idea started as a continuous wilderness trail that he presented back in 1921, which was eventually completed in August of 1937.

Chimney Tops trail is one of the most well-known trails located off Newfound Gap Road due to the panoramic views the trail offers. Though the hike is only two miles up, it is a very steep trail that hikers can’t always complete. With the first half of the trail being fairly simple, the second half is a 960-foot elevation climb to reach the top.

Porters Creek trail is a great trail to hike anytime of the year especially in the winter months when snow makes other trails a tad too difficult. However, in the spring and summer months the vegetation is a thing of beauty making for the perfect scenic trail for a leisure hike.
