Meet Milestone Press
Milestone Press specializes in publishing outdoor adventure guidebooks for the Southern Appalachians. Our titles cover hiking, backpacking, mountain biking, road bicycling, motorcycle touring, wildflowers, waterfalls, and more—in Western North Carolina, Upstate South Carolina, North Georgia, and East Tennessee.
We produced our first guidebook in 1992. Now, after more than 25 years and dozens of other titles, we’ve begun a new chapter in the Milestone Press story: we are now a part of the University of Georgia Press. Milestone and UGA Press are both focused on helping others enjoy the outdoors–and both are fiercely committed to the quality of their guidebooks.
From hiking and backpacking to bicycling and motorcycling, our guidebooks help you create your own outdoor experience.
Take a look at this year’s brand new titles for hiking and mountain biking.
See what we’ve been up to, what we’re thinking about, and what we’re working on now.
