About the Book

So, you want to hike the entire 2200 miles of the Appalachian Trail, which stretches across 14 states from Georgia to Maine?

Bestselling authors Greg Seymour and Jen Beck Seymour, who completed the trail on their first attempt, share their insights and personal stories in this easy-to-use guide.

Their 100 tips, tricks, traps, and facts tell you everything you need to know to plan a successful thru-hike. You will find the answers to questions such as:

  • Why do most people quit and how can I avoid their mistakes?
  • How do I do the doo in the middle of the woods?
  • What animals should I worry about?
  • What do zero, slack-packing and pink blazing mean?
  • How do I plan and budget for a 5-7 month hiking trip?
  • What permits will I need?
  • How do I hike 2200 miles without destroying my feet?
  • What gear do I need?
  • Where should I NOT have sex when thru-hiking?

This book also includes a full list of thru-hiker slang words, as well as four different hikers' gear lists for you to peruse.

THRU-HIKING THE APPALACHIAN TRAIL is the perfect primer for anyone who wants to take this epic journey... and succeed.


About the Author: In 2013, Greg and Jen left the corporate world, where work more, spend more was the mantra, and moved to Costa Rica. They became experts on the country and each wrote Amazon best-selling books on the subject of chucking it all and moving to Costa Rica. Jen also has a successful jewelry business, which she started in Costa Rica. After four years of enjoying Costa Rica and a new fondness for hiking in the mountains of the Central Valley where they lived, the couple was ready for something new. What could be more challenging than spending six months thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail? Starting on Springer Mountain, Georgia and ending on Mount Katahdin, Maine, their thru-hike was the adventure of a lifetime. Along the way they posted daily vlogs about their journey on YouTube. What's next? Stay tuned as Greg and Jen take on the Camino de Santiago, a 500-mile pilgrimage walk in Spain. Greg and Jen's philosophy: work to live; don't live to work. Their lifestyle: chase adventure, not the dollar.
