Art Loeb Trail Thru-Hike: July 18-21, 2024

Join us for this 4 day, 31 mile backpacking trip on the rugged and scenic Art Loeb Trail.  The Art Loeb Trail is listed as one of the 33 Best Hikes in North America by National Geographic Adventure Magazine, and for good reason!  It is a beautiful, challenging hike traveling over grassy balds, up 6000ft peaks, along bubbling creeks, and through lush forests.  We'll hike the trail southbound from Daniel Boone Scout Camp to Davidson River Campground, tackling over 9,000ft of total elevation gain and 10,000ft of total elevation loss.  Because this trail is rugged and challenging at times, it is ideal for folks who have some previous backpacking experience.  Hikers who are already comfortable on trail or have a high level of physical fitness will find this to be an incredibly rewarding first backpacking trip!
