The Appalachian Trail is a hiking trail that officially extends from Springer Mountain, Georgia to Mount Katahdin in Maine.
This trail is setup for hiking with alot of shelters along the way usually with a source of fresh water. The trail is sometimes broken up by going thru large towns forcing you to get off the trail and start up again a few miles away.
Most hikers will plan the their routes for several days of hiking and then meet up with someone who has driven ahead and made camp at at close by camp ground.
Driving yourself to several places where the trail crosses major places or roads would not IMO be much of challenge. Anybody can do this.
If you are really interested in the Appalachian Trail then man-up and hike the whole 2200 miles of it from Georgia to Maine.
