About the Film:
For more than half of the U.S. population, the A.T. is less than a day’s drive away. Yet despite its proximity to many major cities like Atlanta and Boston, few truly know the splendor of this national treasure. Appalachian Impressions takes viewers on a six-month journey of thrills and challenges in fourteen states from Georgia to Maine.
