Continental Divide USA Trail Map

Discover the Continental Divide Trail (CDT) with National Geographic‘s Continental Divide USA Trail Map.

The CDT spans 3,043 miles from the Mexican border in New Mexico, through Colorado, Wyoming, and Montana to the northern terminus at the Canadian border. The trail traces the spine of the Rocky Mountains, including three national parks, 25 national forests, and 24 wilderness areas.

The National Geographic Continental Divide Trail Overview and Planning Map is an invaluable companion for every hiker. Designed for both first-time trekkers and seasoned adventurers, this beautifully detailed map and its accompanying infographics make planning easier, smarter, and more inspiring.

The map displays the entire length of the CDT, highlighting nearby towns, roads, section markers, and key waypoints. A comprehensive trail chart provides cumulative mileage from both termini, section distances, average slope, elevation gain and loss, and the highest and lowest points along each segment. You’ll also find practical details such as shelters, parking areas, river crossings, campsites, and nearby airports – everything you need to plan with confidence.

For extended journeys, a convenient resupply table lists services and food options along the trail, making it simple to organise a multi-day, weeklong, or full thru-hike adventure.

Whether you’re dreaming, preparing, or already lacing up your boots, the National Geographic Continental Trail Overview and Planning Map is the perfect tool to turn your CDT plans into reality.

Every Overview and Planning map is printed on “Backcountry Tough” waterproof, tear-resistant paper. A full Lat/Long grid is printed on the map to aid with GPS navigation. Every map purchase helps support the National Geographic Society, an impact driven, nonprofit organization with global reach that uses the power of science, exploration, education, and storytelling to illuminate and protect the wonder of our world.
