Membership in KTA is open to anyone interested in hiking or the outdoors. Contributions and memberships support KTA's efforts on behalf of hiking and trails.
No organization survives without active, devoted and energetic members. When it comes to hiking and hiking trails, that's you!
Individuals and families, hiking and outdoors clubs, sympathetic businesses, and other organizations are welcome as members of KTA. Our Member Organizations (affiliated local hiking clubs) and Partner Members (other supporters) work with us to promote hiking trails and their use and preservation. There might be one right in your neighborhood.
Keystone Trails Association relies heavily on its members' dues payments and charitable donations to fund its work in support of Pennsylvania's hiking trails. Every member of our organization realizes the importance of trail safety and preservation. Their contributions restore, preserve, and beautify our state's footpaths for generations to come.
