Best Hikes of the Appalachian Trail: South 

Best Hikes of the Appalachian Trail: South details 45 hikes along the AT from the trail’s southern terminus atop Georgia’s Springer Mountain north through North Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia. These superlative treks visit overlooks, waterfalls, rivers, lakes, and wildernesses, as well as scenic, cultural, and historical sites — even trail towns. This selection of hikes reflects the great variety of features the southern AT provides, and the guide is authored by the Southeast’s most experienced outdoor writer, Johnny Molloy.
