BMTA ACTIVITY CALENDAR

BMTA normally schedules four or five hikes per month, some “leisure” hikes that are shorter and easier and some 5 to 8 miles and of moderate difficulty. In addition, we have occasional backpacking hikes and more difficult ones that might be called “hardy hikes.” Occasionally we co-sponsor hikes with other organizations. Some, but not all, of our hikes are “dog friendly.” Although more hikes are in Georgia than the other states, you will find hikes in all three BMT states: Georgia, North Carolina, and Tennessee.

*Please refer to: BMTA COVID-19 Hiker Guidelines and Hiker Guidelines.

Plan to stop by and say “hi” at one of these great locations!

BMTA volunteers will be there to answer your questions about hiking, camping, conservation and trail maintenance in the Southern Appalachian Mountains. Learn about the seven principles of Leave No Trace and why adhering to those principles helps to make a trail sustainable and enjoyable for generations to follow.

Plus, guests will receive a trash bag, gloves and a BMTA carabinier.

If you’d like to volunteer to help staff one of our event tents, contact Bob Cowdrick, bcowdrick@bmta.org.
