Our Mission: To build the Maine Trail Center, a multi-use facility dedicated to the maintenance and protection of the Appalachian Trail in Maine. The Center will host trail building and environmental education and train the youth, the next generation of trail maintainers.
We invite you to learn more and consider becoming a Trail Champion in 2022.
We continue to accept contributions to cover projected cost increases in building
materials and infrastructure.
As of 01/18/2022, donors have contributed $1,278,951 for the Maine Trail Center
