Gear and logistics are the two primary hurdles that prevent people from backpacking. The Trail-er offers solutions for both: We prepare custom itineraries. We rent: backpacks, tents, sleeping bags, sleeping pads, camp stoves and cookware, and water filters. We create and package multi-day backpacking menus. You provide: clothes, toiletries, and personal items. And, voila! You’re ready to GO! To access the Appalachian Trail, you can then walk out the front door – or take a shuttle! Our seven passenger vehicles with four-wheel drive will take you anywhere within a two hour radius. (The most popular trailheads are Max Patch, Davenport Gap, and Allen Gap.) From there, you can hike back to the Trail-er or schedule a pick-up!
The Trail-er is available for private group rentals. Call for more information and to make a reservation.
