The A.T. is the longest hiking-only footpath in the world, measuring roughly 2,180 miles in length. The task of building the original trail took more than fifteen years. It involved volunteers, state and federal agency partners, local Trail-maintaining clubs, workers from the Civilian Conservation Corps -stationed at High Point Park, and the Appalachian Trail Conservancy.
