Since its founding in 1976, American Hiking Society has been the only national voice for hikers – fighting to protect and preserve footpaths, preserve the natural areas that surround them, and promote hiking itself. American Hiking is there:
- Speaking for hikers in the halls of Congress and with federal land managers;
- Educating hikers about hiking responsibly and getting back safely; and
- Building and maintaining scenic trails in every state of our nation.
