Addresses the spiritual dimensions of hiking the Appalachian Trail. Hikers often comment on how their experience as through-hikers changes them spiritually forever, but this is the first study to evaluate these religious or quasi-religious claims critically. Rather than ask if wilderness and outdoor recreation have benefits for the soul, this volume investigates specifically how long-distance walking might enhance both body and mind.
