The Continental Divide Trail is a National Scenic Trail with a length (measured by the Continental Divide Trail Coalition) of 3,028 miles (4,873 km) between the U.S. border with Chihuahua, Mexico and the border with Alberta, Canada. A large number of alternate routes result in an actual hiking distance of between 2,700 miles and 3,150 miles. The CDT follows the Continental Divide of the Americas along the Rocky Mountains and traverses five U.S. states — Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Colorado, and New Mexico.

The CDT was formally established in 1978 with the responsibility for management given to the U.S. Forest Service.
