Are you tired of fighting the good fight? Wish you could just get away from it all? Go for a walk and not come back? The Appalachian Trail is a great place to do that — a 2,181-mile-long public footpath stretching from Georgia to Maine.

And in this four-and-a-half-minute video, you can make the entire trip! Right now!

So, lean back, put your feet up and enjoy the hike from 

Springer Mountain, Georgia, to the top of Mount Katahdin, Maine. Kevin Gallagher’s video takes you across the wildernesses of Georgia, North Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine.

Gallagher took 4,000 photos as he hiked the trail from sourth to north over six months.

The trail was conceived by Benton MacKaye, a forester who wrote his original plan shortly after the death of his wife in 1921. In 1922, his idea was publicized by the New York Evening Post.

October 7, 1923, the first section of the trail opened from New York’s Bear Mountain State Park west through Harriman State Park. In 1929, retired Judge Arthur Perkins, his friend Myron Avery and Connecticut farmer Ned Anderson took on the task of mapping and blazing legs of the trail.

Avery became the first to walk it end-to-end in 1936, but not a “thru-hike,” non-stop from one end to the other.

In 1948, Earl Shaffer of York, Pennsylvania, completed the first documented thru-hike. (Four Boy Scouts claim they walked it in 1938, but there are skeptics.) Shaffer also completed the first north-to-south thru-hike, making him the first to do so in each direction.

In 1998 at almost age 80, Shaffer again hiked the entirety of the trail, making him the oldest ever to complete a thru-hike.
