Shelters on the Appalachian Trail

There are more than 250 backcountry shelters and campsites along the Appalachian Trail, which are maintained by the Appalachian Trail Conservancy and its partners. These shelters are spaced approximately a day's hike apart and provide hikers with a place to sleep, rest, and get out of the weather. However, it's important to note that these shelters are available on a first-come, first-served basis, and some may be closed for maintenance or due to other issues. It's always a good idea to check with the local Appalachian Trail club or park office for up-to-date information on shelter availability and conditions
