Susquehanna Appalachian Trail Club


 

Susquehanna Appalachian Trail Club offers an extensive schedule of activities including scores of group hikes each year with many social and natural exploration possibilities, and numerous trail work outings building our trails and a special sense of camaraderie at the same time!

We are one of the thirty groups that maintain part of the Appalachian Trail, a footpath following the crest of the Appalachian Mountains for 2,175 miles from Maine to Georgia. We are a Pennsylvania incorporated 501(c)(3) charitable not-for-profit organization. Our volunteers contribute well over a thousand hours each year toward the care and preservation of this and other footpaths in Central Pennsylvania.

We invite you to join us in exploring and learning about nature on our group hikes, in caring for our footpaths, and in helping to preserve and conserve our trail lands. Our hikes and trail care outings are open to everyone - membership, while welcome, is not required.

We invite you to see what we have done and are doing to preserve, and to join us on the footpaths exploring, our local landscapes around Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.

This site has been dedicated to the memory of J. Peter Wilshushen. A Geologist with the Pennsylvania Geological Survey for 25 years, Pete hiked the A.T., maintained a section and was the author of the book Geology of the Appalachian Trail in Pennsylvania. He had a deep love for nature and preservation of the environment.


Earth Poem

This earth we know.

The earth does not belong to us;
we belong to the earth.

This we know.

All things are connected
like the blood which unites one family.

All things are connected.
