REGISTRATION FOR THIS TRIP IS CLOSED
Volunteers will be building trail in moderate to steep terrain to extend the footpath of the Cumberland Trail in East Tennessee. Of 322+ planned miles of trail, over 215 miles are currently open for public use. When complete, the trail will connect three national Parks, three Tennessee State Parks, five State Natural Areas, multiple Wildlife and Resource Management areas, and a Tennessee State Forest. The Cumberland Trail will be TennesseeÍs contribution to the Great Eastern Trail, which will cross nine states and 1,800 miles, extending from Alabama to New York. On this trip, volunteers will use hand tools to prepare trail thread, clear brush and roots, and possibly construct steps and stream crossings.
This trip is hosted and crew led by the Cumberland Trails Conference.
