Appalachian Mountain Club

About Appalachian Mountain Club

At AMC, connecting you to the freedom and exhilaration of the outdoors is their calling. They invite and help people of all ages and abilities to explore and develop a deep appreciation of the natural world. AMC helps you get outdoors on your own, with family and friends, and through activities close to home and beyond. With chapters from Maine to Washington, D.C., including groups in Boston, New York City, and Philadelphia, you can enjoy activities like hiking, paddling, cycling, and skiing, and learn new outdoor skills. They offer advice, guidebooks, maps, and unique lodges and huts to inspire your next outing. You will also have the opportunity to support their conservation advocacy and research, youth programming, and work maintaining 1,800 miles of trails. They invite you to join us in the outdoors. Founded in 1876, the Appalachian Mountain Club promotes the protection, enjoyment, and understanding of the mountains, forests, waters, and trails of America’s Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions.
