Appalachian Trail Landscape Partnership (ATLP)

In December 2015, the Appalachian Trail Conservancy and the Appalachian National Scenic Trail unit of the National Park Service convened the Appalachian Trail Landscape Partnership (ATLP) to enable an expanded network of partners to better protect and connect the mosaic of forests, fields, farms, parks, and trails that make up the A.T. Landscape. Together with dozens of other organizations, agencies, communities, and regional conservation networks, the ATLP seeks to support collaborative partnerships to address the impacts on the A.T. and its surrounding landscape’s natural beauty, biodiversity, ecological systems, cultural resources, and public access to outdoor recreation. The ATLP serves as a platform for partnership building in the A.T. Landscape.

Our work is further advanced by individual partner organizations of our Partnership who carry our mission forward and implement land conservation in the field. By leveraging our combined resources and expertise, we can achieve our conservation goals at a faster pace and larger scale than could be accomplished by the efforts of any one organization working independently.
