The Long Trail is a hiking trail located in Vermont, running the length of the state. It is the oldest long-distance trail in the United States,〔(Long Trail - Green Mountain Club - Long Trail, Vermont, Hiking, Vermont Hiking )〕 constructed between 1910 and 1930 by the Green Mountain Club. The club remains the primary organization responsible for the trail, and is recognized by the state legislature as "the founder, sponsor, defender, and protector" of the Long Trail System. ==History== Conceived on March 11, 1910, by James P. Taylor who was at the time the Assistant Headmaster of the Vermont Academy in Saxtons River, Vermont. Taylor lobbied other Vermont residents who shared his dream of a mission to "make the Vermont mountains play a larger part in the life of the people by protecting and maintaining the Long Trail system and fostering, through education, the stewardship of Vermont's hiking trails and mountains". In 1910, work began on the construction of America's first long distance hiking path. The GMC completed the Long Trail in 1930.
