I am just learning about the trail and wondered if it is possible to take a miniature horse to pack along the trail rather than a dog?

No you cant have horses on the trail. Call the Appalachian Trail Conservancy in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia for more information. The only place in Virginia you can have horses is when there is a yellow blaze marked along the trail.

I'm assuming that's a YES. They specifically mention anything.

I have six weeks next summer to hike a portion of the trail. What would you suggest? And is the trail really busy? I love, love, love people but one of my goals is to step away.
