Long Trail, Long-distance trail in Green Mountains, Vermont, United States.
The Long Trail extends 272 miles from the Massachusetts border to Canada, following the main ridge of the Green Mountains through dense forests and alpine zones.
The Green Mountain Club initiated the trail construction in 1910, completing it in 1930 to establish the first long-distance hiking path in the United States.
The trail system includes seventy backcountry shelters where hikers gather, share experiences, and document their journeys in shelter logbooks throughout their expeditions.
Water sources appear approximately every five miles along the route, and hikers can resupply provisions in towns such as Manchester Center and Rutland.
Six unexplained disappearances occurred between 1945 and 1950 in the section between Woodford and Glastenbury Mountain, including the unsolved case of Paula Welden.
