Trail Segments of the North Country Trail Hikers

Members of The North Country Trail Hikers are encouraged to adopt segments of the trail to maintain. Each adopter regularly visits their segment to perform trail maintenance including debris removal, cutting and removing blow-downs, lopping infringing growth, renewing painted blazes and installing signs.

Use the following links to access details of each segment including Trail Adopter's Reports, directions and maps, interesting features, landmarks, or points of interest as well as photographs of the segment. Some segments have "other trails" indented under the segment. These "other trails" connect to or come near the NCTA with some shown on the official NCTA maps while others aren't. Detailed maps with access roads and parking areas are posted on the relevant segment or other trails page. You can select to download PDF versions of each map as well as the directions in 8.5 x 11 format as desired. Please note that if you have dial-up, downloading these maps and directions may take time. We don't have any other way to get you good printable maps so be patient. Thanks and enjoy!
