About

Greenwall Shelter is a primitive backcountry shelter situated on the Appalachian Trail and Long Trail within Vermont's Green Mountain National Forest. The shelter is accessed via a short spur trail from the main trail corridor in the White Rocks area. As a typical Long Trail shelter, it features a three-sided wooden structure with an open front facing away from prevailing weather, providing basic overnight protection for approximately 6 hikers. The shelter operates on a first-come, first-served basis with no reservations accepted and no fees charged. A composting privy is located nearby. Water is available from a nearby stream source but must be filtered or treated before drinking. During drier conditions, hikers may need to follow the streambed downstream to find pools or obtain water from cascades further along the trail. This shelter is part of a network of shelters spaced a moderate day's hike apart along the Long Trail and Appalachian Trail through Vermont. Stays are limited to two consecutive nights. Small wood fires using dead or downed wood are permitted on this federal land following Leave No Trace principles.

Directions

Access via White Rocks Picnic Area trailhead. The shelter is reached by hiking approximately 2 miles on the Long Trail/Appalachian Trail, then 0.2 miles on a blue-blazed spur trail.
