Welcome to the website of the Susquehanna Appalachian Trail Club. SATC is one of 31 volunteer clubs that help maintain the world's largest hiking-only path, the Appalachian Trail. We offer about 100 group hikes each year, mostly in and around Central Pennsylvania - otherwise known to many thru hikers as "Rocksylvania".

Latest News:A Word From SATC’s President
There is no doubt about it, Covid-19 has turned our lives upside down. When I look at a definition of the word “club”, it is an organization of people with a common purpose or interest, who meet regularly and take part in shared activities. Thankfully, we have been able to return to doing routine trail maintenance, and are offering group hikes again with social distancing and covid-19 guidelines in place. It's been a relief to get back out on the trails. Until we get together again, stay healthy. I look forward to seeing everyone soon. Gail Brossman It’s Time To Get Ready For A.T. Vista 2021 –
Celebrating 100 Years! We invite everyone with a love of trails to help us celebrate 100 years of Appalachian Trail history during the virtual A.T. Vista, on August 7 and 8. On both days, all along the A.T. and on nearby trails, guided hikes will be available to join in for the fun. You can also “hike your own hike” along the trail of your choice. Official A.T. Vista hikes are being organized in the following states: Georgia, North Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Connecticut. Details for the scheduled hiking program signups and recorded workshops will become available by mid-July at www.atvista2021.org |
