** Kauai, the 'Garden Isle', lush, tropical and unspoilt, with dramatic volcanic peaks, picturesque rivers and wild flower meadows. Don't miss awe-inspiring Waimea Canyon and the stunning Napali coastline of plunging waterfalls and dramatic cliffs.
** Hawaii, home to the Volcanoes National Park - get thrillingly close to the eruptions of Kilauea.

Its 6,800+ miles of continuous, multi-use trail stretches from Cape Henlopen State Park, Delaware, to Pt. Reyes National Seashore, California. It reaches across America, linking community to community in the first coast to coast, non-motorized trail. The ADT provides trail users the opportunity to journey into the heart of all that is uniquely American — its culture, heritage, landscape and spirit.
