Mission

Founded in 1876, the Appalachian Mountain Club is America's oldest conservation and recreation organization. We promote the protection, enjoyment, and wise use of the mountains, rivers, and trails of the Appalachian region. We believe that the mountains and rivers have an intrinsic worth and also provide recreational opportunity, spiritual renewal, and ecological and economic health for the region. We encourage people to enjoy and appreciate the natural world because we believe that successful conservation depends on this experience. We have over 100,000 members, advocates, and supporters; 16,000 volunteers; and over 450 full time and seasonal staff. Our 12 chapters reach from Maine to Washington D.C.
