The Appalachian Trail in Central Pennsylvania countryside of Cumberland Valley Trindle road parking lot (Craig Dunn) close to Mechanicsburg just east of Harrisburg, the capital of Pennsylvania. This is part of the longest flat 13 miles on the entire AT.
Nature alone time is welcomed and ALWAYS needed. As the narrator with the silky voice says, it doesn't have to be Mount Everest. It doesn't have to be Yosemite Valley. I doesn't even have to be the AT, PCT or any other famous hiking trail. Just grab a backpack, lace up your shoes and go hiking. You'll come back a better person. It's a FACT!
