BACKGROUND AND NEED The American Discovery Trail (Trail) is our nation's only coast- to-coast, non-motorized, multi-use trail, and stretches across 6,800 miles and 15 states. Its route links existing trails, rail-trails, coun- try lanes, small town sidewalks, and big city greenways. It con- nects rural towns and cities with parks and wilderness, and allows people to hike, bike, or ride horses for an afternoon or a cross-coun- try adventure. The Trail uses existing public lands to connect: five National Sce- nic, 12 National Historic, and 34 National Recreational Trails; 14 National Parks; and 16 National Forests. It links some 10,000 sites of historic, cultural, and natural significance. The Trail is a sea- to-shining-sea showcase of America's scenic, historic, and cultural treasures. 59-010
