Mission 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. We believe these resources have intrinsic worth and also provide recreational opportunities, spiritual renewal and ecological and economic health for the region. Because successful conservation depends on active engagement with the outdoors, we encourage people to experience, learn about and appreciate the natural world.
Description At the Appalachian Mountain Club (AMC), connecting you to the freedom and exhilaration of the outdoors is our calling. We 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 as well as learn new outdoor skills. We offer advice, guidebooks, maps and unique lodges and huts to inspire your next outing. You will also have the opportunity to support our conservation advocacy and research, youth programming and work maintaining 1,800 miles of trails. We invite you to join us in the outdoors.
