Waterproof road map of the Pacific Coast Trail (PCT) published by ITM.
The United States is home to several long-distance hiking trails, of which the Pacific Crest Trail is probably the longest. Stretching from east of San Diego north through the states of California, Oregon, and Washington to the Canadian border, this hiking trail is not for the faint-hearted! It follows the crest, or high part, of various mountain ranges, passes through several national parks, and ends in Manning Provincial Park in Canada.
This is an overview map, not suitable for practical daily travel, but it is the only map that shows the entire trail.
There is one caveat, however: for safety reasons, the portion of the trail between Canada and the United States is blocked. This is unfortunate, because one of the most interesting segments is just south of the Canadian border, with elevations exceeding 6,000 feet. This means that anyone wishing to hike this portion of the trail can start on Highway 20 in Washington State, but must return to their starting point. Similarly, those starting at Manning Park Lodge can head south to the border, but must retrace their steps. Furthermore, there are no convenient legal crossing points; the closest being Sumas Pass to the west. Nevertheless, this 1,600-mile / 2,000 km trail is an adventure without equal for outdoor enthusiasts.
