Appalachian Mountain Club (AMC)

Get Outdoors. Find Your People.

The Appalachian Mountain Club is a community of more than 90,000 adventurers, advocates, and nature nerds whose passion for the outdoors knows no bounds. From Maine to Virginia, we connect people with nature—and with each other.

We live to understand and celebrate the outdoors. When you stay at an AMC property, sign up for a guided excursion, or lend your voice to our advocacy efforts, you join our movement to bring about a world where nature is healthy, loved, and protected. And maybe it’s all the fresh air and sunshine talking, but we’re feeling optimistic about achieving that vision.

AMC commits to building a welcoming community where people of all backgrounds can come together to enjoy and protect the natural world. When we speak about engagement, we start with community, but we don’t end there. AMC’s efforts include growing membership, expanding experiences, establishing retention strategies, and continually evolving what AMC looks like. Learn more about AMC’s commitment to Community Engagement.

Whether you’re just getting started on your outdoor journey or you’re an experienced adventurer, there’s a place for you at AMC. So grab your pack. It’s time to join in—and get out.
