Become a Member of the Cumberland Gap Trail Alliance

Every trail tells a story — of hard work, community spirit, and the land that connects us. When you become a member of the Cumberland Gap Trail Alliance (CGTA), you’re helping write the next chapter. Your support builds bridges (sometimes literally!), restores historic paths, expands outdoor recreation opportunities, and strengthens the network of parks, towns, and volunteers who make this region so special.

Membership isn’t just a donation — it’s an invitation to be part of something bigger: a growing movement to preserve, protect, and promote the trails and waterways that weave through the heart of our Appalachian landscape.

You can choose a renewing annual membership, so your support continues year after year, or a one-year non-renewing membership — perfect as a gift for the trail lover in your life.
