About the Long Trail Day 2025 Hike-a-Thon

This year’s Long Trail Day 2025 Hike-a-Thon is Saturday, September 20! GMC’s annual peer-to-peer fundraiser celebrates the Long Trail, and we invite you to join us. Our goal this year is to raise $80,000 to support the hard work that goes into caring for the trail.

Register for Long Trail Day as an individual or as part of a team with your family, friends or co-workers, and set a fundraising goal. Register to Join Long Trail Day Then celebrate our collective fundraising success by hiking on September 20 (or any day and anywhere that works for you!). Whether you raise $27 or $272, or hike 2 miles or 272 miles – or anything in between – all are encouraged to participate in the Hike-a-Thon! Funds raised will go directly to enabling the Green Mountain Club to put crew members in the field, caretakers on the mountains, and to work on conserving more of the Long Trail.
