Celebrating its 27th year, Hike the Hill® is a joint effort between American Hiking Societyand Partnership for the National Trails System to bring together the trails community to advance shared trail priorities with congressional and federal agency leaders including: trails funding, public lands management and conservation, equitable access, and other top priority issues that sustain trails and improve access to public lands.In 2024 trail partners from across the nation will come together for virtual issue briefings (Week of January 22), in-person group meetings, and a Trails Celebration (Week of February 11) to advocate for legislation, learn about new policies, and meet with federal partners, elected officials and their staff, and fellow trail organizations.Exciting enhancements are in store for 2024, including a new host hotel (Motto by Hilton) and a new Sunday meeting location (the beautifully rebuilt Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Library Auditorium), both centrally located in Downtown DC! *Registration does not guarantee a speaking role or attendance in group meetings. Participation may be limited due to capacity, issue focus, or any other reason.
