New National Trails

new National Trails map
from Pathways Across America

One of the results of the Omnibus Public Lands Act, passed by Congress earlier this year, is the creation of three additional National Scenic Trails, and one more National Historic Trail. This brings the total of NSTs to 11, and the NHTs to 16. The North Country Trail is a National Scenic Trail.

Added to the NST system are the Arizona Trail, the Pacific Northwest Trail, and the New England Trail. The new Historic Trail is the Washington-Rochambeau Revolutionary Route.
